The urethane bumpers on my 76 are faded and have some spider webbing on them. The original laquer paint on the rest of the car is in great shape. My question is how to remove the paint from the bumpers? I have read on some other threads not to use a chemical stripper as it could damage the bumpers so I guess my only recourse is to sand the old paint off, reprime and paint. I have a quart of the original color laquer paint and the flex agent but I am at a loss on how to remove the old. Any advice would be appreciated.
 
Tape off the part of the car you don't want to scuff. Get some silicone/wax remover (follow directions on bottle) then wet sand up to 600 grit...its only a bumper, shouldn't take you more then a six pack
