Stripping Paint?

IMO, brake fluid might not be the best choice because it can be a bit too harsh and will be absorbed into the metals and could possibly give you problems. I would just go to advanced auto and just pick up some air craft paint remover, spray it on.. let it sit for about 15 minutes and wash the paint off with a hose or power washer if you can get your hands on one.

aircraft paint remover

you can get it at autozone.

 

 

be careful it like flesh more than paint.

 

Awesome. I have heard this from a few people but was curious if there was something better.

 

I can really just spray it off with water after it eats and bubbles up?

i dont like aircraft remover. i have had problems with it wanting to stay in the metal and contaminate my new paint. if you do use it at least take the fender off instead of just taping. i know of people using it on attached parts and it is easy to get into other cracks and contaminate new paint once again.

air craft stripper will stay in the surface if not handled correctly.

 

 

media blasting would be best.

 

Im not media blasting it because I dont care enough about the part.

 

I think I may just go the sanding route if I even decide to repair the fender. I am still weighing my options.
