    Aircraft stripper takes that paint right off. A few hours of polishing later and you'll have a nice, shiney snout.

    It's powdercoating on the snout, and the aircraft stripper barely cuts the stuff sometimes. It's gotta be a really potent chemical to strip it off, and usually the guys that do powder coating are the only ones that have the stuff that takes it off.

    if you put a scratch in the surface and apply the aircraft stripper and then bag it, it works alot better
