2500 fiberglass strip

[Artracing]

Looking for paint stripper ,if any, and sandblast media to remove paint from fiberglass body. Would like to hear from someone who actually used or saw, media or stripper being used successfully remove paint from body,

I tried soda blast with my pressure Blaster but it just not feasible for large body.
I heard about plastic but need to know what kind.

my advice is don't risk blasting. OK for inside but not the outside which may eat into gel coat.
I think best way is to mechanically sand and then note all the stress crack areas which you can repair first.
The danger with blasting is that it will mask all of the crazed areas which then just get filled over and will come back.

As Neil said.

I used a scraper but be carful on body contours as you need to keep the blade flat.

oooh, that looks like monks work...

a blaster sounds easier, but indeed, what kind...

or maybe a paint dissolver? no idea what such does with the grp?

Plastic media blasting is what I use. If your car is a pre M, you won’t have any gel coat.

No came off easily, less than a day to get the paint off.
