Hey scott, I used a wagner paint eater on all of my troop seats before I painted. It brought them all down to tan wood. They look really nice now minus just a couple spots. The seats seem to just soak up the 383.

Scott's dad replaced all the slats with new wood so there is no paint to be "eaten" Thanks for the advice though, On my cucv I just ran over the slats with a hand planer and problem solved.

Hey Scott there's member from CA that did just that on their front bumper. Looked pretty clean. I think her name was like "Deuces wild" or something like that.
