| And idea of some more speedy methods of sanding paint off urethane body kits? Sanding is taking an aweful long time, and I want to get to painting this by Saturday morning. |

| Instead of totally removing the old paint you could just featheredge the existing paint, might save some time. |

Featheredge meaning "roughing up?"
I didn't know how well the paint would stick to that...I guess it would work if i got a nice even coat of primer. |

| If the parts were properly prepped for the previous paint job than there is no need to remove all of the paint. Sand out any chips or imperfections in the paint, and like you mentioned, apply a couple nice even coats of primer. Sand your primer to a good grit, depending on what type of paint you're using and you should be good to go. |

I believe what he's saying is that, you don't need to sand all the paint off provided you don't leave a raise in between completely stripped surface and non-stripped surface.
Like, that you can run your hand over the bumper and not feel where you went down all the way or not. |
