    Default peeling clear acrylic

    Does anyone know the best way or a good way to strip the clear acrylic coat from my paint job?It has started to peel in some areas already.

    Thanks for taking the time Pantha.I was eventually looking at a respray but was unsure how to get rid of the clear.By the sounds of it you can sand it using wet/dry so i might give that a bit of a try on 1 X panel and see how it goes.Thanks again for ur time.
