It's stripping time. 1974 starcraft Mariner

[ctriverfish]

Well it stripping time. Just stated stripping the Mariner and under all the old paint is a fine mist coat of Zink-chromate primer the yellow stuff. It?s stuck like glue. Stripper will take it off but only after all the other paint is off and a heavy coat of stripper is reapplied and let sit for 20 minutes, then a good sanding will bring her to bright alum. My question is should I try to remove it????

If you are repainting I wouldn't think it would have to be removed. A light sand and start spraying, any bare spots new zinc.

Dont take it off !

If its stuck on there..feather it out and spot chromate and spot prime..then apply the topcoat.
