Re: Harold's '48 S10 LS1 Build
I started cleaning the inside of the hood today, among other things. This had an undercoating that was a pain to remove. I've tried last summer with some of the useless strippers that they carry at Home Depot and Lowe's. Those didn't touch it. I found some of the good aircraft stripper at O'reilly's, and luckily it was a warm day. It still took about three coats of stripper.
Some of the areas under the paint and undercoat were rusted. I used some Phosphoric acid to clean the rust, and I have a couple of small areas that will be faster to sandblast. I should be able to get this finished up and primed tomorrow.
