The dreaded rustworm is starting to return - at the moment is's just surface rust under the paint on top of stuff that is extremley solid. Is it a silly idea to attempt a piece by piece bare metal respray while the car is still being used? sort of panel at a time stuff. I'd obviously flash over any bare metal if it needed to be driven.
What's the best way to get rid of paint and filler from 30-odd years to present? I'd like to do a good a job as possible, hence back to metal and etch primer etc, but also without taking the car off the road for months. Is this even possible
Any ideas?
cheers

coat as much on the panel, make it air tight with the polythene, wait about an hour, and just scrape off, I did a whole Mk3 cortina, with 10 tins of wilcos home brand, an 50 black bags from the 99p store.

Have you forgotten that once we were brought here we were robbed of our names,robbed of our language,we lost our religion,our culture,our God? And many of us by the way we act,we even lost our minds.
That rover looks cracking, If you are respraying the car bit by bit you might want to try using rustbusters bodyshop primer which isn't porus unlike most primers so you can still use the car before you put on top coat. I've used their epoxy mastic paint and that is excellent stuff
is that just normal paint stripper? seems like a nice easy way to do it.
