Default bloody sanders

i aint been on here for a little while as i`ve been tryin to get my case sorted
i stripped the beige off my case with an electric sander
NOT A GOOD IDEA

AS IT`S TAKEN ME BLOODY AGES GETTIN THE IMPERFECTIONS OUT

if you want the beige off your case get some of those sanding blocks and use a bit of water,it may seem a long process but it is a hell of a lot quicker that getting that sander out
i spose it would take about 4 or 5 days to get a nice polish to your sanded case by hand using sanding blocks and wire wool

if you get the sander out and do it that way you`ll be lookin at about 3 weeks of sanding by hand gettin what damage that bloody sander did

SO DO IT BY HAND!

i should have some pics of my nicely polished case on here by next week

thanx

I used a spray stripper, then washed the parts with some water and detergent, then rinsed them very good with a high pressure hose. Had clean metal that didn't require much smoothing at all.

A spray stripper? And you a married man...

Do you remember the brand name so us n0obs know what to look for at the hardware store?
