Hello all,
Today I tried paint remover. Mixed results… It did soften the red paint. Still a real pain to scrape it off.
Still mostly impressed with the gator sanding wheel on the sidegrinder.
80 grit is not going to cut it. But, a gator blades stripping pad, extra coarse, will get it done. I might have to buy stock so I don’t go under doing this. Must buy masks also.
I have done some digging, scraping really. Found the unit ID under the paint on the passenger side front bumper. Next day outside I will look on the other side. 3ID 703d MSB
