I haven't been happy with the original red paint I chose when I painted the panels for R5-D4. I had been using Rustoleum Gloss Apple Red, but it seemed too "tomato-y" to me, as if there we a slight pink hue to it. I decided to switch to Rustoleum Sunrise Red, which is a shade darker. But before I apply the new paint, I want to strip the old paint off first.
Acetone, we meet again.
It took me a good 20 minutes or so to clean each panel. I wore a respirator mask and gloves, which is always enjoyable when it's 90 degrees out.
I got through most of the panels, but there are still a few more to do.
I'll pick up where I left off tomorrow.
