if you do go the tergo route few tips for ya....
Invest in a cheapo roll of glad wrap - do a panel at a time, paint on the stripper quickly then layer glad wrap over the panel - to sort of keep the vapours from escaping.
Give the tergo a good 10 minutes to work, grab a spartula and simply scrape the residue off.
Problem areas or areas that havent really stripped may mean waxes/poliishes playing with the tergo so paint on a second coat of stripper and agitate with an old hand wire brush, then cover with glad wrap.
As said, cover up well and make sure you use it in a well ventilated area.
Make sure you wash off and dry all areas used with the stripper, especially before
attacking tight areas with a rotary wire brush on the drill and spraying residue all
over the old mans commy sitting in the shed too......
