| Trail trekker repaint advise (for a lil girl)
I'd like to repaint this trail trekker for my 4yr old daughter. Thinking pink and purple (favorite colors). Any thoughts on scheme? Remove paint or paint the outside? I'm leaning on paint removal to make it pretty but it sounds like a lot of work and my time is limited. Has anyone used aircraft stripper? I've used that on painted mountain bike frames with great success.

If your time is limited then Id just buy a new body. Then she can help pick out the style of body too.

Just a word of caution......aircraft stripper will eat that body for sure. Works great on painted metals, but not so well on plastics. Use Dot 4 brake fulid to strip the paint. |
