I also received my paint stripper from Coopers. Like a lot of you I’ve been disappointed with any stripper from the last five years or so. Most won’t even take off fresh spray bomb let alone automotive paint. I read the reviews, watched the videos, and took the plunge. This stuff ain’t cheap and you definitely need to wear some heavy gloves but this stuff works like a champ. I did a quick test patch on my fiberglass pedal car and within a few minutes that ‘ol enamel crinkled right up. There is no gel coat so I was worried it might soften the glass but I scraped and rinsed and no evidence it will harm the glass. That said I’m just going to remove the big stuff and sand from there. If it ever quits raining here I’ll show it in action.

Just got home from the Long Beach swap. Pretty good turnout today. Scored a fork and threaded bottom bracket for a bike I am building for a friend’s kid. Found a spindle for a set of Redline 401’s, super stoked about that. Front fender for a prewar Schwinn just to have, 10 bucks so i cant really loose on that one. And lastly another oddball ‘45-‘46 Schwinn Dx frame because you can never have too many Dx’s

This was a good week. I picked up a couple of bicycle related items. I got a really good deal on a 700c clincher wheel set on Ebay for under $160 shipped. At the same time, I got another deal on Ebay for a pair of new Thick slicks with inner tubes for $38. I also picked up LED light strips for my front windows for the 4th of July.

I have to ask about your bicycle stand- can i purchase one in a store? Or was this home made?
