Coke off a stripper?

Anyways, back on topic - I think they sell teh Nitromors you need in Halfords, I think it\'s called Nitro-Mors Automotive, and it\'s frickin horrible stuff!
Alternatively, take it to a blasters, and they\'ll strip it for beer money.

powder coating is easy to get off!! all you need to do is heat it up so it is hot to touch, then just peel it off!! starting it is the bugger, but once it\'s started it will peel like an orange ;) Did the roll bar for the hilux the other week!
