the metal prep
and then, Paint or Powder Coat?
So...do you really have any questions about what you are doing? Or is this one of the "look at me" threads.
Well, he asked for info, got some damn valuable response, and discounted it.Those of us who work with our hands can recognize a poser pretty quick. I call BSand am going back to my shop.
As someone who used to do very high dollar race car restorations, I'd highly recommend not using aircraft stripper. Best to have it blasted (walnut or soda). The aircraft stripper gets in cracks and causes many other issues. If you're going for the factory restoration then Paint. If you really don't care about the highest value and you're going to ride the heck out of it then maybe powder coat. I much prefer paint for the proper job. Powder coat is great for it's intended purpose (durable) but it has no place in a concourse restoration IMO / IME.
