  Thing to use is a needle gun like used to clear chalk out of boilers, works great as a paint and rust stripper and far quicker than a sander and needing less bovver than a blaster. Blasters can be made from old tall propane canisters, couple holes for fittings, big hole atop for media and hooked up to air, I am sure the welders there could sort a decent size and use soda so any media is washed away with the rain :) Primer, red oxide is still the king for old wagons, prob the reason the paint lasted so well was due to red oxide that is the real stuff as nowadays its a banned product due to the lead content hence its nickname "red lead" but the modern stuff is pretty solid for primerwork.

  I’ve just ordered a blaster to try so we will see what happens! I do have a needle gun too so I will try that as well. For this particular pannel the easiest thing at the time seemed to be to just sand it back but the next section I’ll try a different method!
