I think I might try scraping before I got into sandpaper if the finish is as dubious as you suggest, at least to get down to the primer. Trouble is you really need a scraper with a convex blade to avoid corners of a scraper digging in.

It doesn't seem to want to scrape off. Maybe just hard enough not to... I may try the scraper on the neck with some heat, though. No binding there to melt there at least....Originally Posted by JimC
