Quick update..... the first test was a epic failure. However I'm trying a few more things with new chemistry that can be mixed with water. My goal is too find a chemical/water mix that will safely remove paint off different types and makes of vintage drum wrap. It looks promising. If anyone has any junk wrap they'd be will to send me to test please let me know. All I have is a small piece of Gretsch WMP from the 50's. I'd like to try some sparkles and satins if possible for a wider range of testing.
In the meantime I decided not to pursue the painted satin drum. I don't have a effective way to safely remove the paint yet and between the drum, shipping and the chance I'd have to rewrap the drum it's just too expensive. But I am interested in finding a good solution for others to use. It's going to take time though.
My end result needs to be a safe mix that a piece of wrap can soak in for a hour with no melting, dulling or fade damage but removes the paint. I feel a hour is a good test timeframe and submerging the wrap gives total exposure. So in the real time test it can be applied and removed from the painted wrap shell with shop towels or the likes. And final wipedown with water to finish.
More to come...........
