You can soda blast or glass bead blast which doesn’t leave as rough a finish as straight sand media blasting. You can also use a chemical paint stripper but it’s a little messy. On my current Fastwin restoration, I used Citristrip stripper – it worked real good on stripping the color coat but had a tougher time removing the original zinc chromate primer. I finished up removing the primer by dosing it one more time with the stripper and rubbing with steel wool – came out nice.

"Every time you remove a broken or seized bolt an angel gets his wings."Doesn’t take much at all. A 64 ounce jug should do it. I used it on just the big pieces – cowl, lower motor pan, exhaust housing and gearcase only and had almost half a bottle left.
