        Folks

        One other thing I tried was a 3500 PSI pressure washer. While it is
environmentally friendly it is still too slow to suit me, and only removes
about 90%. It does offer the advantage that it gets into the sheet metal
creases whereas creases are difficult to impossible with an angle grinder.
Still, you may wish to try it. Just don't hit yourself in the foot with the
water jet. That sucker HURTS. And the smaller the jet size the better.
        One other thing on the angle grinder. You will want both a twisted wire 
cup
brush, in addition to the flat twisted wire brush. The cup is great for flat
surfaces, the flat brush lets you get into MANY of the crevices in the fender
(but not all).

Nastiest job going and there's no easy way to do it. Heat and a scrapper
work as does some industrial strength strippers but it's slow messy work.
