I just bought a gate on EBay and it will need to be stripped back and re-painted to hang outside. Are the chemicals needed really nasty or is it feasable to do it myself?What is the best way to strip and re-paint a steel gate?
you could go to a home improvement store and get a good quality paint %26amp; varnish remover(rinse able Type),Follow directions then sand prime and then paint with a good quality oil base enamel
Another option is find a auto body shop or a sand blasting shop and have them remove the old paint sand blasting is better as it will remove all the old paint and scale, It smooths small imperfections also
A sand blasted metal needs to be primed at onceWhat is the best way to strip and re-paint a steel gate?
You can buy allot on environmentally friendly stuff out there to clean this gate but you can also rent a mini sand blaster %26amp; it will do allot better job with very little mess.
