Oh thats not bad.
It was quoting me $45 + tax. Do you only use a solvent based W&G remover ?

Re: W&G remover
That's the only brand I've ever used...
I hate the way they price stuff at oreillys...shows how much of a markup there is on stuff..

Re: W&G remover
Check your local auto paint supplier.....should be no more than $20-$25 a gallon for solvent based.

Re: W&G remover
Check with SPI, they have both and list the uses for both.

Re: W&G remover
I use Prep-all now, it is solvent-based and I get it from the local paint shop. I tried a water-based before. It worked, but wasn't very good at cleaning, especially with wax/tar. If it was a clean surface, it would make it ready for paint. I didn't have any issues with adhesion.
I am an amateur and I am interested in other replies, so don't read too far into my experience. |

Re: W&G remover
I use SPI’s waterborne. Be sure to allow ample time for it to flash off before application of primer or paint.

Re: W&G remover
I go down to a local body shop with my 1 gallon container along with a case of beer so I don't know how much it costs. They buy it in bulk but I do believe it's solvent based. They spray PPG products.

Re: W&G remover
Friday's about 4:30 I seem to get the best deal. And yes a couple of cold ones after breathing sanding dust all day makes the beer taste real good.
