Good question....... I'd like to know that myself. What type of stripper do you plan to use? Varsol? Mineral spirits? Methylketone? If worse comes to worst, just take and sand it down...... I know it's a bitch but you're guaranteed not to wack up the bondo.

the white paint and clear from the picture i did with rattle cans and it sucks, its all faded, stained and chipped now. Was going to get it painted properly by an auto paint guy this year so want to prep it right

Ok well you need just to Sand it down like I Said, get it primerd but I think if you spilled gas on it it will fuck it up you know! Your best bet is to leave it and wait tell you have money to take it to a shop and have it painted and clear coat!!!!!
