    I think I just needed someone to tell me what I guess I knew already…

    thanks…

    Its an ’87 Cadillac not a ’57 or a ’07 so there is a diminishing returns thing to take into account.

    I’ll think this one out a little better.

    I am also an occasional painter working on my own projects and I will also tell you to keep off the stripper. It makes a mess. Maybe in a pro shop the guys can deal with that better but for the hobbyist its a nightmare.

    I use stripping discs like the ones from Eastwood or sanding discs to strip old paint.

    For surface rust I use a wire brush in a drill to clean it out. It has more flexibility than a sander to get in the pits the rust causes in the surface and you want all that rust out of all those pits.

    Nice ride, post more pics as you work on it please!
