Just realized its been 6 years since I’ve tigged last. LOL Got my settings all dialed in and I’m all ready to go, unfortunately stripping the paint which I thought would take 2-3 more hours is getting nowhere. wirebrushes on my grinder and drill, flap discs, and some sandpaper… the factory coating does NOT want to come up easily. ---
