TNOSE_E Posted March 26, 2010 Share Paintstripper ..... paintbrush.....industrial rubber gloves....papertowel Takes a bit of time. Apply stripper to pole....... sorry frame. Wait for bubbly,.....sorry paint starts to bubble, wipe with paper towel. may need to be repeated depending on coats of paint... Buff with alu polish.

MariusL Posted March 26, 2010 Share Jappie at Union Cycles in Brackenfell might be able to help you... he sprayed my (steel) track bike a few years back. He leaves the frame in chemicals overnight for the paint to come off, and then does the spray-painting. Maybe he could arrange that your frame gets put in the chemicals - without doing the spray painting. Give him a call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
