Denatured alcohol doesn't even make a dent. Maybe I can sandblast my hands. Yeah, when they say that you'll wear it for at least 3 days they mean it. I've tried lacquer thinner, enamel reducer, soapy water, and nothing takes it off except time. If you get after it right away, you might have a small chance. I haven't tried sandblasting yet. >2. Buy pints. If you're doing small piecework, you'll waste less. Ok, i've found that sometimes its just not quite enuf though. >3. As much as I hate to do it, what with breathing well and all, fog the entire frigging driveway with bug spray. Wet-sanding, anyone? Yeah, thats stuff effects me more than any paint I've ever worked with. I have to leave the room and call it a day when I use it. You can sand it if needed, but you should wait at least a week first. I just wait and dry sand it, then recoat as they recommend 2 coats . > Anyone need some body metal? Make me an offer. Remember: I'm not cutting into this for a few weeks, and it all goes to the recycler at the end of the day. You're probably on the wrong coast for me for steel though. :( It sounds like you made great progress too.
