In the next couples of weeks, I'll be starting the paint stripping on my deuce. I can't use a sandblaster due to location. Has anyone else used other methods that's proved to be faster than sanding? Something like a chemical stripper or anything like that?
I have an air compressor and DA sander w/ ALOT of heavy grit paper. I'd like to use something else to get the hard to reach spots. Bubba used some kind of brushed on paint on top of the multiple layers of CARC. There's literally about 1/8" of old paint on the truck. Not to mention that the colors aren't correct at all.

Jakob, check in the paint and bodywork threads. You may find some answers to your questions there.

I am trying to be the best stripper out there. So if anyone would like me to strip their truck let me know. All I ask is that the fuel tank is full and you sign the paperwork for the truck over to me.

Jacob, I like sandblasting the best, but you could also use a needlescaler.

Jakob, CARC is a pita but I use Easy Off in the yellow can. Works ok.

What's a needle scaler? I live in an urban area, so sand blasting isn't realistic. I need something more controllable.

I completely missed the "Paint and Bodywork" section. All I seen was the sandblasting section and that's not an option for me. I'll post over there and see what turns up.
