Stripping Paint and Restoring Panels and Parts

Season 20, Episode 2

This time on GEARZ Stacey delves into why and when you should strip the paint off old body parts and what to do with them once you have. He not only covers what kind of media to use and what to expect when you get the parts back, but also when it’s reasonable to re-use the original parts and when it’s a good idea to replace them. After that he dives into a “simple” restoration project on some headlight buckets to illustrate how much time it actually takes to restore things properly, and why your project seems to get bigger instead of smaller! If restoration is your thing, GEARZ is what you need!
