Getting It Ready for Paint

My husband has spent most of his time lately scraping the old paint and rust off of the Shasta. He first thought that he would use a sand blaster. Well, after several failed attempts with that (and lots of money spent on a sand blaster and all the necessary tools that go with it), he found that using a paint remover, scraper, pressure washer, and wire brush worked the best.

Lift-off was used to prep the surface

Uncovered stripe - originally it was orange then was painted blue at some point.

The Shasta sticker was uncovered.

More paint scraping.

Even more paint scraping.


Almost all the paint on this side is removed.

Now to start taking off all of the drip edges and windows...........
