I have this 1952 Tucker Sno-Cat I want to paint. It is made out of aluminum sheet metal on the body. When I presure wash it some peals off right down to bare metal. So I need to remove the rest of it befor painting. What would work to remove it? What kind of paint would work on the metal that comes in a can? This is not for show but I want it to look better and be a solid color. Is there anything I should do to the metal befor painting after I remove the old paint? If I use a striper will it ruin the gasket seals on the windows? If so I need to use something else instead. Thanks Mark H.

High presure washing, with hot water is what I have used in the past with pretty good results.
Have stripped off peeling paint from a couple of Dodge van roofs using that method.

That is an unusual machine, what do you use it for? Is it by chance Chrysler under that sheet metal?

It is used to go up mountians in the snow. Also like the ones used in Antartica and Ski Resorts to drag groomers for the runs or a trailer on Skis. It is powered by a Dodge Flat head 6 rated @ 95 hp with a 4 speed manual transmission in it. The power steering tracks articulate for turning and can tilt independently. It dose use Dodge/Chrysler truck running gear and transfer case modified to the tracks by different axle ends to big sprokets for the tracks. I guess you could say it is 4/track drive!! Mark H.
