We still strip our cars the old fashion way with Aircraft stripper and sandblasting compound edges, jams, rusty areas..

Put Plastic on the floor to cacth the residue. If you let the stripped paint dry out, proper disposal is in the garbage.

Once you get a part naked, scrub the part real good with a scotch bright pad and water to neutralize the stripper.

Then DA sand the metal with 180 grit to get the paint residue off.

If you have any concerns of rust or rust pimples you can use Ospho with a scotch brite pad and scrub the panel or the bad spots.

Then scrub the part real good with a scotch bright pad and water to neutralize the Ospho. NOTE: It is CRITICAL to make sure the ospho is 100% gone or it can react with your self etch or epoxy. So we sand it all off 100% after a water wash

Then polish the metal up goodwith 180 on a DA and get it in epoxy right away.

I suggest not stripping and polishing more panels then you can prime at the end of the day.
