[VAL] Paint; 1956 Caravanner



Hi,

We have just completed removing the inside skin of our 1956 Caravanner. 
  A previous owner had painted over the original Zola-Tone paint with a 
few coats of acrylic paint.  We would like to strip and re-paint the 
interior.

1. What is best way to strip the paint off the skin?  Stripeze?

2. Should we just strip the acrylic paint and paint over the original 
paint or should we strip it all of the paint off the skin?

3. What type of paint is recommended once the paint is stripped?

4.  Should we paint prior to re-installing the skin, or should we paint 
once the skin is re-installed?

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You
