Well. It's gonna be a marathon, not a sprint....but I think I can do it............maybe.

I'm so glad you have an in depth video. I just picked up one in fairly good condition that just needs refinished. And looks like you'll be my guide. Thanks again! I've never done this before...

Great video and very helpful. I don't know if you mentioned it but which stripper did you use. We have to get all the old paint out of the crevices.

Hey there thanks for watching and taking time to comment 😀! There are two different basic types of paint strippers. A gel type and a watery type . Also i believe there is some in a spray can. Depending on the situation i may use the gel or the watery version . For Tight corners i have used old tooth brushes and the gel stripper and also some homemade scrapers and picks to get at those tight hard to reach spots . Just be careful cause that stripper , the good stuff any ways will burn your skin pretty quickly !
