i didnt seem to have too awefully good luck with the aircraft stripper. it dried very quick and didnt really allow much to be taken off with a scraper, like I was hopeing to do most of the trailer with. im gonna try a thicker gel like stripper, then maybe blast the remaining that it leaves...

Well while on duty the last three days, my Karcher pressure washer sandblaster attachment arrived. I had an extra 90lb bag of sand left over from doing my wheels and misc other parts, so I got it from my station and brought it home, very anxious to try it out. well, considering I have a...

Cool, I have a karcher, I checked out the kit on thier website and its only 80 bucks. I never thought of it for my karcher. I heard of them for others. I think Ill hafta try that. I did it with just the pressure washer, but no luck. thanks for the info

Ok, thats fine, I dont really wanna remove the carc. I wanna let it on there as a good rust preventitive base. I just wanna get everything on top of it off.

Ok, thanks. What about just an average paint stripper from like Lowes or Home Depot?? Same thing??

Some people I work with have told me to use something I'm surprised no one mentioned here. Has anyone ever used aircraft stripper? I was told it would even take off the carc if not careful. I kinda wanna leave that though as a good rust preventitive base. :roll:

Never heard of it, who does it??

Where in Porterville?? I work in Porterville so maybe one day i can bring it to work with me and drop it off.

As far as what type of wood to use?? Im having all mine redone in white oak. according to a local wood and timber mill here, he said it would take the waether and use the best. Thats for the bows and gates. Im replacing it all cuz it has the military paint on it and alot of it is cracked...

Well considering the color I'm gonna go with i figured I'd hafta at least get all the other coats off. I thought about leaving the military paint on, I assume thats what you guys mean by CARC?? Im gonna do the Dodge Submarine Green, same as my Power Wagon will be someday. So maybe I'll...

Short of sand blasting, what can i use to get the paint off my trailer to prep it for new paint? Ive tried oven cleaner. It barely took the overcoats, and there are about 5 or 6 colors, and where the military paint is visible, it didnt even touch that. I knew i shoulda just sandblasted the...
