Hi
I have aquired a set of EL Fairmont factory mags that I would like to strip the clear finish from.
What would be the best product to do this?
Thanks

Sand blasting should be ok, hope you are painting after as the clear finish protects the alloy from oxidizing.

Thanks Joolz
But I was thinking more like a chemical stripper as I was going to spray the clear finish again
