Restoring Toy Tractors

Posted by James in NC on December 31, 2003 at 13:31:15 from (208.30.34.2):

I am in the process of restoring two 1/16 Farmall 856's. I have found a place to order the decals, tires, seats, etc. I am working on stripping the tractor down to the bare metal with a dremel tool. I have primed some pieces with a sandable primer. My two questions are what methods are others using to remove old paint and decals and where are you getting your paint? Is the spray paint from the dealer my best bet or is there away that can get some better paint in this small amount? Sorry for the long post. Thanks in advance.
