Does anyone have an article on how i can paint my Head cover myself wit out it chipping n stuff. I know i need high temp paint but need steps.

To strip it, pour brake fluid on it. That shit melts the paint right off.

Clean it really really good. Use acetone for a really spotless clean.

Then paint it.

So i sprayed aircraft paint remover on my head cover n it took some of it off n some of it is still on. I sprayed it 5 times already n some of it is all clump n goopy all on it n idk how 2 get it all off.

Does any body know of any stronger paint remover?
