Third application did the trick and I would say that we were able to get 95% of the paint and primer off. The final photos are after a quick neutralizing rinse. We will do a more thorough cleaning tomorrow when we can get the car outside.
First Application
Project: K.I.T.T. is the restoration and conversion of a 1983 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am into Knight Rider's KITT, and the restoration of a 1987 Pontiac Fiero into a daily driven tribute to KARR.

There's Metal Under Here Somewhere
Our second attempt at the POR-Strip yielded better results. We left the first application sit for 30 minutes and then brushed on a second application which was allowed to sit for 15 minutes. Removal was much easier and actually removed all the paint and primer down to the metal in many areas. In other areas just the paint was separated from the primer. Sara tackled the passenger side and I did the driver side. After getting all the loose paint off with a combination of scrapers and hand wire brushes we decided to try a third application.
