Default Best way to strip flaking paint on a trailer body and sheetmetal

On Mon, 03 Sep 2007 02:11:48 -0700, with neither quill nor qualm,
Gunner Asch quickly quoth:

I painted the body this evening, after the sun went down with Jaso
paint stripper. Whatever it was...started coming off like fingerpaint
in the shower. Ill check it in the morning..fire up the pressure
washer and clean all the gunk off, and see what it looks like.


I hope you put newspapers under it and scrape the old paint and
stripper off onto that for a dump run rather than blasting it
everywhere, Gunner. 6" wide mud paddles (putty knives) do well.
