Ady Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Baught a nice CUSCO front strut brace, just for looks, for my suppie a little while ago. Was planning on re-spraying the feet befor I got her. So I got off my ass and started today. Drill with wire brush end and origional color strut feet: Got a bit fed up after a while using the drill on them, so I got 'ye old faithfull' down from my room and nitromorsed them. Took a while to faf but got there in the end: Result: 2 cleand strut feet ready to be sprayed in the rover blue. Will post some more pics when ive sprayed them and fitted it after xmas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ady Posted November 11, 2007 Author Share Posted November 11, 2007 where can you get that paint remover from??? Did 1 windscreen wiper the other week and it too bloody ages stripping the paint off with wet and dry Got mine from halfords, £5 i think - NITROMORSE is what you need. Ive learnt from that mistake now - i went to stermart and got a 'wire brush' end for my frill - 89p You can see it in the first piccy - strips paint of metal in no time, but could also take too much out of the metal if your not carefull. Nitromorse worked a treat tho - its messy so have plenty of newspaper and a paint brush to hand. TOP TIP - wear gloves!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
