I bought a kit and the i/c has been sprayed black, I want it to be the regular color. What is the best way to remove the paint, or should I just shoot it with some silver?

 

use this
you can get them in kragen's or murray's
or get aircraft remover

 

if its rattle can paint then you can use break cleaner also..

 

get aircraft coating remover

spray it good all over

wait 1.5 minutes

spray with a garden hose and see the whole thing shine!

 

cool, i'll pick up some aircraft remover tomorrow.

 

doesnt that stuff eat aluminum?

I remember seeing two kinds, stuff that said aluminum safe (more $$) and the other which didn't.

 

i received a starion i/c once painted in this nasty silver color...

i sprayed it down with aircraft paint remover and it was a PITA to remove all the paint scraps from the fins.

good luck.

[edit:: darn, must have used it wrong [/sarcasm] not sure how wrong you can spray something but ok... ]

^ you must have used it wrong. Aircraft remover + hose = clean off any painted surface.
