    Default Stripping paint

    I need to strip the paint from my flapperons, straighten out the trailing edge, fill the dents and repaint. I purchased some aircraft stripper by Kleanstrip and started to remove the paint yesterday. Brushed it on, waited 15 minutes, scrapped with spatula, repeated, and rinsed with water. The paint came off, but the green primer is very stubborn and I'm having a difficult time getting it off.

    Questions:
    Any tips to remove the paint and primer other than what I'm currently doing?
    How do I straighten the trailing edge to make it as unnoticeable as possible?

    Thanks for your help,
    Mike Kahle
