paint removal from an old kona help needed!!

[nporternz]

I got some heavy duty paint stripper onto my kona aa frame and it doesnt seem to be working. It stripped the project 2 forks with no issue and it does around the welds really well but the main easton tubes dont want to strip properly!! I want to polish this frame - any help???

we dont have nitromors here!!

any powder coater? if so they would bead/sand blast the frame for you. will take a bit more polishing afterwards though.

Ask a nice person here to send over some Nitromors

Hi, I recently stripped an old Kona ('96 Hahanna) with an electric drill and wirebrush attachment. Cleaned all the surface rust and crap back really nicely although took a couple of hours and produced plenty of dust.
Breathing mask required!
Hmm unless the '96 AA is not a steel hoss?

the AA is ally and anodized, not real anodizing, like Chris King, but that crap anodizing that Santa Cruz use,.but that crap that Santa Cruz use.
