I used Citra Strip on my 69 Elco restoration. Used razor blade..followed by electric rotating wire brush. It does not burn your skin nor stink like the aircraft stuff. Much safer ... I liked it... After you strip the body down to bare metal...I wiped it down with Eastwoods..Fast Etch. Now that you need to use care in the application. It is an acid etch... Check it out..worked great.
yea i prefer the flouride stuff. but not available anymore. THis worked good for stripping old synthetic enamels but not good for clear coat cars. that stuff is too hard. the non flouride stuff is OK and stronger than this stuff but this was good for what I was doing. I did put some on the fender and left it overnight and it took off even more layers with plastic on it. I was actually surprised. Not bad if you leave it under plastic for 12 hours.
FYI if you want this stripper to really work leave it overnight. I did that on the fender and it worked really well.
@@thebutcher6934 yea it is slow reacting but does the job. Aircraft has a new formula for fast acting I hear havent used it yet.
I'm looking to remove a garage spray paint job on a 1980 Volkswagen rabbit and not ruin the original paint think this would be a fair product?
i did too on my mustang bumper left over night and went out side in morning and scraped all the paint off with a plastic scraper
The Goof Off graffiti remover will remove the paint all the way to bear metal?
Next time after you put this stuff on I used a cheep paint brush ,but after you applied it cover it with glad wrap seals it in works a lot better

Non toxic & doesn't smell. Must cover wrap! I didn't the first time & a waste my fault. Thanks for video
There is a new Aircraft stripper called Aircraft Ultra gel that is supposed to be really good similar to the old stuff
just not the same chemicals.
Ok I will try that. I do like the orage stuff just need to be patient. and let the plastic do the work.
I know that front end all too well… what year Karmann is that?
68
Dimethylchloride,was in the strippers,that worked.
Thanks for the review. I suppose it's a good thing the government saved us from products that actually worked.

I guess clean air and drinking water is supposed to be a good thing.
