Mechanical VS. Chemical Stripping

Mechanical stripping is fastest for a small area such as part of a door or fender. Mechanical stripping is also good in an area

where the chemical stripper may damage the part or a part nearby.

Chemical stripping is quick and easy for a vehicle requiring complete stripping, although areas that need protecting must be double masked first. Chemical stripping is also very good when stripping a complete panel such as a hood or door that can be removed from the vehicle.
