Well my OCD got the best of me and the cab is back apart soaking in alcohol to be striped and painted for the third time.
It took eight 32oz bottles to fill the bucket and cover the cab, seven new bottles and one I used to strip some red paint and all mixed together it all looks red but I am sure the black on the cab will take care of that.![]() ![]() And you probably thought I was kidding till you seen the pic. I just was not happy with the paint and since there are not to many of these cabs I wanted it to be a close to perfect as I could get.Travis

Do what you gotta do Travis. I totally understand where you're coming from.
![]() I'm wondering what the deal is w/ the alcohol trick. I had my Aeromax (turned Sterling) cab submerged for like 3 or 4 days and the paint seemed a bit softer but nowhere near able to scrape or wire brush it off. Maybe Vince used a different kind of paint?? Not to hi-jack your thread but wondering what you think about that. I figured I would just sand it all smooth, prime it and paint over it. Guess we'll see how that goes. Joe |
