Then I would use a heat gun and Super DeGooper to remove the side art prior to sanding the sides for paint, although the belt sander would likely take care of it too! |

I have tried 3 differant paint strippers. 1 thing, the stuff is not cheap. It takes close to a Gallon each side. the only problem with the belt sander with the sticker. It will gum up a belt fast. I think I used 6 belts up. Belt sanders are not as bad on wood as people here think. |

I typically only use a paint stripper if I am trying to save the underlying artwork (and then use something mild like Safest Stripper). Otherwise I am a heat gun guy -- if you own the heat gun, it is cheaper (and, to my experience, faster) than any alternative. The Super Degooper I use only for glue residue. |
