So the body is stripped now. I used Citrustrip but I wouldn't recommend it. You can see it left the poly coats untouched (what a coincidence its the same ones I left untouched too :lol: ) and the stuff is caustic enough to eat through nitrile gloves. On top of that it is pretty messy to work with.

All of the gray spots are where I sanded through the sealer the very first time I stripped the body.

Up next primer....

Not quite Ice blue but pretty darn close, ended up going with this color on a whim when I went to pick up primer for the project.

Not a great shot but you can see the reflection of the carpet in it:

Boston Blues from Guitar Fetish make a real nice accent for the body:

Thanks again for the input people.
