Thanks Pat
No.... unless you are an expert. You will warp the body panels from the heat generated from the friction. (Only an experienced operator should SANDblast a body) Using soda would be good or media (shells)
If you are going to strip it yourself, I would offer the option of a good paint remover folowed by a pressure washer, (or a scraping with a credit card)
You will need to wash and neutrilize the stripper and then coat with an epoxy sealant.
