    This spring I want to strip all or most of the paint off my trailer.It has like 1/4 inch of paint in places,I think they painted it once a year,for 50 years.What is a good paint stripper that I can put on it and pressure wash off,or if I ever get my steam cleaner working, whats a good one to use with that ?

    A good grade of aircraft paint remover would work, Eastwood has this, http://www.eastwoodco.com/jump.jsp?itemID=18786&itemType=PRODUCT
    It works really good on most finishes. Remember your paint probably contains lead, pressure washing it off might not be the best way. Park the trailer on over cardboard and apply the remover and use scraper to remove old paint. Collect the removed paint bag it up and dispose of IAW local regulations. Most of the time double poly bags and put in a land fill, but check anyway.
