[QUOTE="CedarRiverScooter, post: 471345, member: 15465"] The adhesion of the existing paint to metal is the key here. One test for that is to take a sharp knife & make cross hatch cuts, about 1/8 inch parallel cuts, for about 1 inch square. Do this in a non- appearance area, obviously. Take some fresh tape & press it hard into the cut area, pull straight up. If the paint pulls up, I would strip it. If not, just scuff it up. [/QUOTE]
