I only chemical stripped outer panels. Making sure not to let stripper run into nooks and crannys. pinch welds, etc.
Masking areas up helps. be surprised how the stuff starts oozing everywhere.
depending on amount of paint on panels. may take a few cycles to get all off.
I usually start by running a DA quickly over the panels with 80 grit or so. Just to rough em up. Seems to make stripper bite in quicker and better.
Do small areas, like you might when waxing a car. pour some on area, or dip out of pan using cheap paint brush. smear around generously. let sit for a bit. scrape off with plastic scraper. I usually just scrape off into an old box.
The factory red primer on these early cars is mean shit. Stripper didn't seam to hurt it to much. When you have as much off as poss. clean residue with laquer thinner. Then DA all bare metal and Body work from there.
Unless in nice dry environment, get some epoxy or something on it quick.
For those that don't know. Most epoxy s , Like PPG DP90, DP40, DP50. Ect. You can do filler and bodywork over top of.
Hope this helps.
