Hi all, I've recently just bought a Ford Fiesta zetec s. And the problem that I have is the owners before me have decided to paint the entire car with hammerite paint.. this being that it looks so bad! 😂 Rather than getting a full respray costing hundreds. Would there be a way to just strip the paint and not the actual car paint?!

    Yuk! that sounds a right mess and unfortunately i'm not sure theirs a way of stripping the hammerite off without destroying the original paint unless any one on here has had a similar issue which they've manged to resolve ..
