Paint stripper? Jesus. "Jasper's" gelly paint stripper does wonders. Just let it sit for 30 minutes, then scrape with a flexy flat blade/putty knife.
Bam. No more paint.Need a part? PM me.

I'd throw some clear on it to seal it, but surface rust will actually protect the metal below. We've got a 55 Dodge that's all surface rust. No holes whatsoever.no more boosted m20, 91 318i...

Cnotes: If the car is already a beater and such, go for it. It might look better than when it started. If it is a nice car, though, don't do it. There are other ways to make your car stand out from the crowd. Just my .02.
right on the money...that said my bronzit is a beater not worth putting money into to restore and i would nt rust anything on it..(doin a pretty good job on its own in that regard)
