Like most 56 year old gals, my "new" 14-19-3 has some challenging cosmetic issues which I didn’t notice on our first date. The various layers of enamel paint are cracking, especially around the door. After reading through the log books a few times and decrypting the chicken-scratch entries, it looks like the only recover job on the fuselage was in 1974 (Ceconite). But I didn’t buy this plane expecting to do a recover job anytime soon. As the picture below illustrates the paint is separating all the way down to the fabric. In fact the piece of paint I pulled off took the tape with it. What are some possible solutions? How do I remove the enamel paint? Any suggestions from my forum friends are really appreciated… Rob
