I was wondering can you use paint stripper to do this ?

Im wondering if it might be easier and cheaper to just re spray black I think?

As spoke to the water vapur guy he said it is more of a finishing proccess
more than actually getting of the paint ..

cheers in advance

Yep, paint stripper such as Nitromors should do it. Avoid the 'safe' or eco-friendly stuff, I bought some to get paint off a fibre-glass tank, I'd have been better just leaving the tank out in the rain for all the damn use it was!

I would try soda blasting a handy link below if you have a compresser

I like this idea but do you take the whole car apart before you do this?
As this is what im trying to avoid doing .....

Cheers mate
