Re: [A/S] Paint Removal
I have the vinyl coated aluminum walls too, and have used
Goof Off to get rid of caulk adhesives and even spray on
insulation. You might be able to use the citrus based
stripper, but I'd test it somewhere invisible first. Thev
vinyl is incredibly tough. If it is latex paint, you can
sometimes soften it with ammonia. Windows open and fan !!!
Be aware that some areas may be painted plastic, not vinyl
coated aluminum. For those areas, you can't use much or you
will remove the painted on texture and actually melt or
soften the plastic. The curved endcap in my back bedroom
was so stained that I gave up and painted over it.
Good luck,
Daisy
