Pup Paint Prep

Ok, last night I used easy off oven cleaner to strip the paint off one side of the pup camper. Then I hosed it off. Now its 400 grit to 800 grit to 1000 grit wet sanding over the aluminum...also gotta get the stickers off.This gives a sense of the before paint.

This is after stripping for a couple hours. Easy off, let sit, scrubbed a little with a brush then rinsed with water....still have some paint to go....and sticker removal

Here is the paint supplies I picked up....I wanted orange but they did not have that in krylon tractor paint in a spray can....they had an awesome lacquer orange that would need to be sprayed as well as cool metal flake but I'm concerned I don't have a fresh air respirator. So I picked up some acrylic enamel stuff in a spray can. It's krylon tractor paint in international red along with some spray glitter to put over top and some spray acrylic clear coat. They did not have the green glow in the dark paint that I wanted and I still have my heart set on that orange green glow color combo.....I'll stop by the hardware store tomorrow and see if the have a better selection than the auto part place.
