or nitromors and a wire brush if you want to do it yourself for a fiver or so

I was in a similar situation and Nitromors got pretty much all of it off. Just had to go round the joints with a dremel to get the last of the weird undercoat he'd put on it.

Yeah, i've heard alot of good stuff about nitromors, is it generally accepted as being the don?
-
• #9
it wont be as good as shot/bead blasting
-
• #10
It's good, just hard work and potentially painful

don't get it in your eye

I heard if you get it in your eyes you get the super power to strip off anything you want with your mind?

I've both Nitromors'd a frame and sent one for blasting- trust me when I say that the blasting option is better.

Bathtub + Nitromors (About 20 Litres) = Beautiful Frame and no bathtub
Worth it
So i got a free frame, i don't know what it is, but it is need of some serious love. I'm going to put it together as a big ugly winter bike for knocking cars off the icey roads. At the moment it's covered in layers of what appears to be:
Thick house varnish
Thick house paint (worst on all the joints) - (Its heartdbreaking to see)
Possibily a layer of repainted bike paint
Finally the original paintjob.
What is the best way to get aaaalll of these off in one?
Bare metal would be a dream to see.
