    I'm going to repaint the door moldings in the center of the doors for a friend of mine, but his are starting to peel from the edges. Would aircraft stripper be best to get all the paint off? I'm afraid if I just sand the edges, they'll start to peel again if I don't get all the old paint off.

    Epoxy primer, then? or can I use a regular type of primer before the BC/CC?

    Has anyone ever painted these due to the factory paint chipping?
