Does anyone know where i can get some paint stripper and primer that's not too expensive? I heard aircraft stripper is some good stuff, where can i get that? I live in L.A..

 

Pep Boys

 

Or AutoZone, Advance Auto, Napa... Pretty much every large (chain) auto parts store... And yes - the Aircraft Stripper is your best bet! Just be sure to rinse/clean it off after...

 

There are a few places that sell paint and other materials that you need to paint a car. Here in wilmington, ca I know a place that sell everything you need to paint a car or prepare a car for paint.
If you like the info of the place let me know I will give it you so you can call them

 

Auto Zone and pep boys are kinda expensive, Saritasan whats the name of the place, i live kinda close to Wilmington.

 

One thing to remember, in So Cal we cannot buy good primer or paint.
If you are doing small parts there is a self etching primer in rattle cans.

If you are taking a big part or whole car that you intend to spray with a gun then I have no idea where you can get the primer you need. You might try a auto paint supplier in San Diego or Vegas.

 

The place is call Meza Auto Body Supplies
522 west Anaheim Street
Wilmington, Ca
310 834 2038
I would give them a call to see if they sell what you need

 

Thanks i'll give them a call, as for what car im going to strip and prime, its a baja beetle. I couldn't find an auto paint supply store anywhere near me.

 

that stuff is sssssooooo messy

 

You might try to find a place the does media blasting. Trying to strip a whole beetle is going to be time consuming and expensive with paint stripper.
