Bad news - ran out of bloody paint stripper



The doors and the boot lid and the rear wings have been attacked with clean & strip discs and sanding discs ready for the next stage - paint stripper

But that's about as far as I can be bothered to go with it at the moment.

Good news - running out of paint stripper has forced me to look for an alternative.

The Land Rover Series 2 club speak a lot about Synstrip. This is difficult to find in Holland but I have managed it. It seems to have good reviews so by the end of this forthcoming week I should hopefully be in a position to find out if that's true. I'm buying it from a previously unknown supplier so we'll have to see how that pans out...

...if the Synstrip doesn't work I'm planning to try Metstrip from a place where I have bought stuff before but that was slightly more expensive.

Both Synstrip and Metstrip seem to be similar (as in acid based) but both work out to be cheaper than the PORstrip (in Holland). I hope this Synstrip turns out to be better and cheaper than the PORstrip

Fingers crossed.
