Need help stripping mint tins

Post by Kellacious »

Is there anyone on this list who has successfully removed the advertising and such that adorns the exterior of the metal mint tins? I have *several* that I want to use for a challenge here, but I want to prep them before I can make this a go. Can't have other people's 'art' interfering with ours, right?

Thanks in advance,

Kelli

unless you want the shiny metal background, I'd just shoot them with primer - it comes in a few different colors

Never (LOL) in the wrong forum and ALWAYS looking to spice things up. That's me!

Just you wait until I get all these babies primed and ready to go . . .
