I want to have the car repainted in the original colour without removing the engine or the interior. According to the body shop it's possible that the paint will peel off after some time because of the incompatibilty of the new and old paints. The car has been repainted before but the green the PO used is not the original Palma Green and there are some dents and scratches that need to be removed. Rust is not a problem.
So how do I remove the paint? (chemical paste, sander,...) |

slotty008, I'm not sure you need to strip the car. If paint now is good and not peeling, sand and fix scratches/dents then reseal and finish......Best, Mark

But the guys at the body shop say that if it is cellulose paint it wil react with the new paint and peel off. Also I don't know how many layers of paint are already there. Is there a way to measure the thickness of the paint? |
