Stripping and repainting the fiberglass body
Short of Soda blasting, has anyone had good or bad luck using other methods to remove the old paint? Stripper? Sandpaper? Other Ideas?

Re: Stripping and repainting the fiberglass body
When I did my 85s I just sanded the crap out of them followed by some bondo and more sanding to smooth things out. It was a lot of work but I got pretty good results.
There is a body / paint sub-forum here that you may want to browse: http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/body-paint/ |

Re: Stripping and repainting the fiberglass body
If sanding be careful you dont get past the gel coat.. cause then youll have to re coat it .. and be sure to only use alcohol to wipe any impurities off of it .. anything else will soak in and once its painted again and it sees the sun youll have some sweet bubbles !

Forgive me but I took my skins to Maaco and they did it all for $375.
