Jay and Dan:
The Bridgeport area shop is American Dry Stripping. They are represented at
lots of
swap meets and shows, and their reputation is top notch. But, I found this guy
in Jay's
hometown who does all the same stuff, and I think for less money. I have seen
examples
of his work, like in using plastic media to remove layers of paint on a Shelby
Mustang
but leaving the primer. The restorer on that job thought it important. The
Wallingford
guy, whose name I don't recall, is part of Saviteer Monument Works on Cherry
Street, or
Cherry Street Extension, something like that.
