Hey guys,
I know long time I`ve been on the forum. I`m so busy with my career, school and personal life. Anyway, my question deals with All-Terrain Vehicles (ATVs) or commonly known as `quads`. My friend purchased an older one, that the plastic was repainted. It was originally green, but the previous owner must have just spray painted it over with white. It`s pretty durable the white, but there are clearly spots that it`s peeling.
I`m wondering what would work good at stripping the white paint off? I was thinking of trying Airplane Remover, as I used it with great success on flaking caliper paint, but it`s too strong, and will eat the plastic. I`m now thinking either lacquer thinner or paint thinner? I`m thinking try in a small spot, and go from there. I just figured I ask since my friend is away till Monday, and I wanna get an idea of what would be good, or if anyone has experience with this.
I know if we we`re doing a full restore the process would be too strip, than go crazy sanding, and wet sanding followed by spray, but we`re not looking to get that involved. We just want the white off, and the green looking as good as we can. The quad is a 1994, so it`s quite old.
Thanks!
