Very Basic Paint Question

[67z28]

Thanks to everyone that has replied.



I'm not a painter, but I have been told over the years both opinions of it must be striped completely and if the paint isn't coming off it's fine to prime over and paint. I know it is always best to start fresh, I was just curious what the general thought process was from a group of people that build and paint cars with today's technology. It's actually kinda funny the opinion is still somewhat split. The main issue in my mind is to completely strip the car, it would need to be dipped or blasted, including the jambs and all the other cracks and crevasses that hand sanding is tough in. These are the areas that were of more concern to me than the main body.
