stripping paint
So you read in my last post how I got fish eyes. I've now got one layer of paint to come off above the primer. Should I take it back to metal or try to just take off that layer? I'm afraid that if I don't go down to metal I'll have to put more primer or pain on to fill in low spots even if it is feathered out.
As well, what should I be using. I'm guessing a rust and paint stripper wheel is out of the question or can I get away with it if I'm going all the way down? What grit paper should I be using if I'm not going all the way down?
Thanks guys.
