280z Hood vents stripping

Featured Replies

Any idea what the best way to strip these to prep for paint? The previous owner put on paint that is chipping and flaming away and I want to get it down to have a reliable base for primer.

When you use paint stripper, don't scrape - use a brush with firm plastic bristles. Yup, it's messy.

I used old toothbrushes and Kleen-Strip for plastic from Lowes. Took 2 go rounds and some light sanding to get back to original. Emory files worked for the sanding in the vents.
