Re: How to reveal original paint?

That respirator will work just fine..just make sure the cartridges are clean..
As for the paint..that is tuff...what are your plans once you remove the outer layer?
Sanding will be the best way, but needs to be done evenly...if your gonna leave a patina look to it you can do most anything to it...but once you get under that outer layer theres no telling what kinda mess you may find...if you'll post this in the paint and body section you'll get better answers...
Maybe Martinsr or some of the paint/body guys will see it here..
