Lol your body guy is stuck in 1960. You can use chemical stripper. You just have to know how to work with it. The one thing you don’t wanna do is sandblast it no matter what anyone says, blasting is stretching the metal and that ain’t good. By the way, that shitty looking formula France steering wheel is actually worth money. Lol I have no idea why but people want them now.
