Hello again everyone, on the 25th, i went to a hardware store and bought a can of Paint Stripper. This is my 1st time using it and damn, didnt know it will hurt so much if the chemical contacted skin. i think i ran to tap water for every 15 - 30 seconds to wash, the pain is unbearable even juz a small dot dropped on my skin.
As u can see from the picture, not much of a success can be said, only some of the paints removed, some still sticking strong on the metal parts. It is due to my wrong step in applying the paint stripper. Stupid me, i only check the manual on the internet after encounter the problem, not before using it.
The right step is:
1] apply paint stripper using brush
2] wait for 10 - 20 mins for the paint to start peeling off
3] scrap the paint using scrapper
4] wash with water to neutralize the chemical
But what i did was:
1] apply paint stripper using brush
2] wait for 5 mins (after i saw a little sign of peeling, over excited)
3] wash to neutralize the chemical
4] scrap the paint (this is useless bcoz after washing, the paint harden)
These pic are showing some of the progress, cant do much due to working days, next update gonna be this weekend.
