I want to share a tip. I wanted to strip the old paint off my 64 Savoy, but didn't want to spend a thousand + dollars for it. So I bought a gallon of Citri strip at wally world. We painted the entire body, trim and all. Let it set overnight, and took a pressure washer to it. I am very happy with the results. All that is left is a little primer and some bondo. This stuff doesn't burn,stink,is water soluable, and biodegradeable.

What happens if the stripper gets into the seams of the doors etc? Is there a neutralizer for this product or will it stay active?

I used a high pressure power washer and went over everything several times. This stuff desolves away with water really fast. It also turns to kind of a powder when dry if you missed something. I haven't seen a downside yet, but I will keep you guys informed.
