Crap paint but underneath...

(1/2) > >>

thebigdog:
lets just say I have a frame set ,say an 85 orange streetbeat  :LolLolLolLol: , its been painted grey & looks to be just a rattle can job ,but underneath the grey paint  is the original orange enamel? finish. Will nitromors just remove the crap top layer?

ozone:
It will take the lot off.  Try some thinners.  That might soften up the grey paint if it's crappy cellulose type paint.   :-\

Im begining  to think that some of the original paint underneath may have been stripped in places like the drop outs anyway so fook it ill strip it bareback -back to bare i mean :LolLolLolLol:

heres said bike,nitromors didnt even touch the paint is tougher then i thought.
It needs to be stripped right back i think.
Why you would do this to a streetbeat i dont know  :uglystupid2: I think some one had dark midschool plans for it.

That's because the new batch of Nitro-Mors is crap - it has been health and safety-fied and they took the naughty chemical out which does all of the work.    :wtf: SBD uses Starstryp or something.

I'm OK, my local DIY shop has some NOS paint stripper out the back.   :LolLolLolLol:
