Mikee Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 (edited) you can sometimes just put the nitromors on for abit and scrape the paint off with an old top-up card or something else just as stiff depending on the quality of the paint. It has worked for me a few times, so I would suggest giving that ago. Edited May 10, 2010 by Mikee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 I just used the brush when I did mine at work the other night. Paint a bit of the bike with it, let it go off for a bit then paint a bit more over it and as you do if you push down firm it takes the old off then rinse that section with water whilst brushing it down to get rid of the last bits. Worked a treat for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do sandblasting where i work and i'v done loads of frames, they have always come out great i would do it for you but i live on the isle of wight but i hope this info helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
