Alright, I thought that some of some of you might want to know how to strip steel parts (im using my cranks as an example) and sometimes get that sweet those sweet weld marks in the process. Before i start i just want to let you know that not all steel parts will give the the distinctive weld marks, only some parts will give the welds marks. I am using my madera protocol arms as an example.


Alright before you start stripping your parts you want to use the right materials.

I used;

-fast reducer (similiar to acetone and paint thinners but this is what i had readely at the time)

you can buy a big can like this at advanced auto parts for like 15 bucks but u dont need such a big container

-an old rag to rub off the paint


-i found this little hand scrubber thing that helped a bunch


-a small tin container to let the parts soak in the paint stripper(optional)

-and clear coat for when your all done with stripping the paint off



OK, now once you have the supplies you can start by soaking the rag in the paint stripper and rub the paint off the part (in my case the arms)


you can also put the part in a container to soak aand soften up the paint so its alot easier to rub the paint off.

and this is what it looks like when they are done.




and those sweet weld marks

and dont forget to clearcoat the part so it doesnt rust like crazy!
