Stripping?

No, not the fun kind that involves numerous dollar bills. I just got quoted to have all my body panels media blasted at $1500 I was mostly curious to see what it was going to be, but it definitely confirms that I will be going the manual stripping route.

Before I dive into buying abrasives, I was hoping to hear from those who have done this already, and what has worked well for them. The underside of my cab and most of the body panels have this thick tar like coating on them. I have a feeling that removing this coating down to bare metal is going to be the most difficult.

I'm open to suggestions on abrasives, grinding tools, chemical strippers, and even blasting at home.

thanks.
