The White Elephant 116B
#12

With warmer weather so I can be outside I've gotten back to stripping the white paint off the 116B.  You can see where I left it with citristrip and a bit of mineral spirits but could not continue that indoors.  I've used more mineral spirits and some lacquer thinner with 0000 steel wool to make this progress but there is a lot of white still in the pores, edges and cracks.  I think it will take a brush of some type to get some of this....This is going to take awhile!
