Can oven cleaner strip paint on a 59 rambler American 

I really enjoy your channel. I'm a retired Family Pastor and what you are doing with your kids is to be commended. Some of the best times I had with my kids was working on cars. Now I get to see them do the same. I can see your Faith without you preaching. Keep passing your passions on.

I hope my girlfriend and I can have a family like yours some day. You can tell a lot about a person with how they treat their kids and animals, and you treat them extremely well. Every video is entertaining and educational. Thank you.

I love how he has all his kids involved with getting these old cars running again. They are learning history of once was with these cars & how easy it was to work on them and it's something for them to look back at when they get older & good times and memories. Family bonding it's great to see that 😊

Old guy opinion here, patina is a french word that translates to "needs a paint job"

*Мне очень нравится фоновая музыка. Она приятная и не мешает просмотру. Отличный канал! С удовольствием смотрю, как вы оживляете старые авто.* 👍🏻🤗

Love this Channel. Its family powered

First!!! Ralphie’s Rambler!!#SavetheRambler

Looks like a field fresh Montana paint job!!! Who says you can't create killer patina good show fellas!!!

Nicely aligned rear end 😂

Its so great to see you out there with your son having a good time

You got a grate little helper. I did the same kind of stuff with my kids

what you removed was primer. Primer is not chemical resistant. The blue is top coat. The top coat is chemical resistant. That's why the brown stripped and the blue didn't. You could have washed the brown primer off with Acetone much faster. lol.

Rockies eyes reflect purple..aww😘

That Rambler American is looking amazing with the primer gone!!!!

I think that's really cool .awsome project for father son bonding.

I really would love to see you totally restore this car you would have a little Jem make it like new this would be a car show favorite

We used to walk a few miles to get an RC Cola and a Moon Pie! The Rambler looks great!

Like your Rambler Ralph. I used to own a 1966.

Safe to say that this is the ONLY video on the tube where you’ll see an old Rambler (with hardwood floors) chickens, a pig named Va-enya (sp?) and a billy goat. 😂 Love the videos!!

The chickens are jealous that Rocky gets all the camera time and decided to join in.

You are living the life brother, beautiful family. I really commend that.

So much to love about this channel. But ROCKY and the other animals keeps me coming back.

One of my favorite channels.. Just real, no BS.. love it.

This episode should be listed as Rocky Eats His First Vienna......LOL

i,ve been wanting a 1959 rambler from the time i was a kid had a couple of rambers back then and miss them they were and are a tuff little car they will hole up very well o ps i,m 60 now

So happy to see Rockies first Vaina! Glad you got it on the video.

You should use a product called Penetrol. It's used in oil based paints to allow it to flow. Back her into the garage, clean the surface then use a sponge to put it on and let it dry! It Should seal the metal/paint and keep the finish that you want. Follow all safety precautions.

👍👍👍 Your videos are awesome. Especially the thunderbird series. These are the two cars that remind me of my high school years. Driving an SC 5 speed when they were new and a kid was so rememberable, great fun cars. Yet the turbo 5 speed I always thought was faster, as the turbo came on so strong. Thank you

We love your channel & how you open the bottle on the bottom of your sandal. I tried repeatedly with no success. Thank you for sharing. Cheers from California.

awesome video love the channel

Love that look. The aged or patina look is pretty cool. I will try the oven cleaner trick.

I would get some black satin spray paint and put a little bit on the front of the car so it blends better !! Thank you for all the great videos !!

Funny my Aunt that turned 85 hand painted her 57 Plymouth with house paint and a brush. At least later down the road when she bought her 59 Studebaker Lark VI she left it that original I think it was called salmon I call it pink.

My original thought :Maybe you should have done it like a deck and power wash after time with the easy off. After watching the scrub washing I was impressed

We used a product called "Tal-Strip" to get my buddy's '64 Econoline van down to bare metal in about a day. Two guys, scrapers, and eventually palm sanders for that nice swirly metal patina!

The back looks good for a patina job

Kinda reminds me of the harry potter car,cool lookn oldie though 😎

you are giving the car a nice...patina!

Man....I got to get a T-shirt !!! I'm ordering tonight... Rocky's the best ❤️

Never thought about using a scotch brite pad to take paint off a vehicle you da man. I enjoy your videos the old Rambler is coming along nicely. Yeah if that car were mine I would keep it and have the whole vehicle sprayed with bed liner the good stuff but if you ever wanted to paint it I guess it would be quite a job getting the bed liner off the car. .

Great video, love your channel. Have never tried oven cleaner to remove paint 👍

Try taking the paint off with the pressure washer. I have used pressure to take off regular paint remover and it works very well and down in the cracks.

fun video i didnt think you would get any paint off..but it turned out ok

ya i,ve owned about 8 or 10 ramblers back in the day and back then i was still young and i would drive fast and i,d be hard on my old cars and i loved it when i would get a rambler as i could drive it hard put it up wet and it would hold the the hard driving very well and every one that i had were all the same way just tuff ass litle cars but also that why i,m wanting to buy yours if you would sell to i already know a lot about them o what a gem you do have there i would love to restore it back to drive on the road once again please get with on this is you still have it and i do live in tn as well here baxter tn

Good work. I use Dad's paint remover. Removes varnish too. Methyl ethyl ketone works well also. I've seen it eat the paint off several pieces of construction equipment in my younger days.

That car is going to be so clean you could bake on it! lol oven cleaner jokes. lol

Love your channel!

Man seeing the wagon in the background i can't wait to see that one up and running !! Think that wagon will be a great Hot Rod !!

Great looking patina

Would love to come over and hang out 1day. Love the videos. Yes I ain't far from there

Cellulose thinners on a rag would probably get it off quicker

That was fun to watch!

Love it bro you always make me laugh

I have to laugh…🤣. I was extremely curious to see what would happen myself, but I’m thinking a sander would have been quicker. Oh well, you don’t know if you don’t try 😊

ya i know what i know about old car i learned it from may dad by helping him when i was a kid just work with and helping him out on his cars and by the time i was old enuff to drive it turned around and it was my dad helping me on my car projects but i know what i know about life came from my dad

Nice video once again guys.

Oven cleaner is also very good for removing anodizing, and aluminum coatings in general. In the case of aluminum coatings, at least. Never tried it on paint or coatings meant for steel :P

I'm no expert but I would have used 800 wet and dry sandpaper. Then go to maybe 1200. Used the hose and some running water. I've never had any luck with paint stripper (only on plastic paint.). Cheers 🥂

Enamel cross links between molecules. Lacquer does not, it relies on solvent evaporation to leave the solids where ever they landed. That was a good candidate for sanding. Would have produced a really cool patina as you break through in some spots and not in others. Both paint stripper and oven cleaners have been severely neutered over the years. They all need to be covered with cellophane to slow solvent evaporation. The primer you may as well get five gallons of lacquer thinner and just wipe the primer off.

Man that was a good video man. I didn't know oven clean would remove paint like that. You definitely got to work out with this. I take it that one arm and shoulder is going to be stronger than the other. I was surprised about the results. It turned out good man. Your son was funny going to run away when you tried to open up the RC Cola. He's willing to drink it but not get a little bit on him. " LOL " good video buddy thank you for sure.

Cool, love it! 👍

Yo dude I reckon give the old paint a spin up with a da to give a wicked patina finish. Great vid👍

You should be sponsored by the Vienna sausage party!

I need to send you a case of Chattanooga Moon Pies to go with that RC. Good job as always.

Good choice with the oven cleaner, we use it to strip off hard to remove gaskets on machinery.

when you spray this stuff on....and come back in the morning....it will still...look like a rambler!

Not bad looking good 😊

That's funny, at 10:08 it is in time lapse, you can see the white truck back in, it's in the background, the next thing you see is every animal in the county apparently running to the truck. Not sure if it was food or Marge but they were really wanting what was in that truck lol.

I follow you from Brazil, put subtitles in Portuguese.🇧🇷

Sleeperdude needs a gallon of clean strip from walmart. Only problem is I think a gallon of stripper may coast more then the car is worth. :-)

Oven cleaner will strip many types of paint but best to do it in the shade and put cling film or something over it to stop it drying out while you let it work for about thirty minutes.

Really a pretty decent body on that car.

I used oven cleaner on some ancient furniture that may have had a nitro finish that was stained over a million years of cigarettes and hand oils to remove just the top layer of the finish and keep as much as possible still on. It's delicate work but it held up after a few years so no long lasting damage to the remaining finish and looks a lot cleaner lol

Gotta get me some of those barbecue Vyennia sausages! FYI - Vyennia is southern code for Vienna.

Great videos bud love the whole family being involved Try you some aircraft remover or acetone might get the rest of that blue off lol.

The scothbright pad did good , kind of wonder what 000 steel wool would have done

You might try a heat gun or a hair dryer to make the oven cleaner work faster? I've never used oven cleaner for paint remover but looks like it was a good idea 👍💡

Looks great!!!! a little help from the pressure washer may take care of the rest 🤷‍♂️

I use oven cleaner to remove grease and oil , strip paint off aluminum parts . Spray wait about 30 minutes and pressure wash it .never tried it on body parts.

Dot 3 beakefluid seems to be a good alternative paint stripper plus just washes away with water.

EZ OFF oven cleaner works great for takin' the baked on grease and crud off an engine, when ya dont feel like scrapin' it off.

Buen video hermano como siempre esperando lo del Nova saludos desde Argentina Temperley

Nash and Rambler used a Ziebart Rust dipped coating process on the lower quarter panels and doors, fenders because of massive salt damage or cheap metal. I had a 59 Nash Metropolitan which had this coating. Metal strip works good but must be chiseled off. On my car, the coating only went half way up!

Yall just wore me smooth out..haha

Never have seen anyone use oven cleaner to remove paint but obviously it does sort of work. Maybe not as good as paint stripper but still in a pinch. I use oven cleaner instead of degreaser to clean grease off engines that does work real well.

Been there…..do not envy you guys at all….. gunna have to sand down the primer that’s been on my car since a week after I bought it…then re primer the whole car then have a buddy paint it… high power pressure washer will work but only after whatever you are housing soaked into the old paint

The trick is keeping oven cleaner from drying out. Out in the sun probably not best place, but suppose it wouldn't be a very good video without the sun.

I have used Easy-Off oven cleaner to strip paint off of model cars. I usually allow it to sit over-night. I would recommend that you park it in the shade, buy a cheap "Drop cloth" and cover the car with it after applying a full coat of oven cleaner. Your problem is that you allow it to dry and then it becomes useless. I'll continue to watch to see how it works. Good luck.

7/19/'24 I can't believe I missed this one 👍👍👍👍👍

It made A awesome patina

I have enjoyed watching you and your family. But, I would actually like to see you complete a car project. Rather than just getting them running. And going to the next. Thank you!

I really like the BBQ whinners.

I’ve been enjoying your videos on so many levels. Your lovely family and their interaction with you is wonderful and the mechanical elements are great fun. I’m a model T Ford whisperer so I’ve done a lot of early mechanical trouble shooting. I drive a 1923 runabout as my daily driver up here in Rochester, NY. As a yankee it did take me awhile to understand your accent particularly when saying Vienna and oil, but it’s all good. Time to haul an on model T home for resurrection. 😄 I’m curious what type of camera do you use for your videos?

I use methylene chloride, starts instantly. Paint wrinkles as it runs down the sides. I keep about a inch of water on top to keep the highly volatile liquid from evaporating.

Guess who gets the oven cleaning duty next? Sleeperdude! LOL

Hard wood floors option...lol

We got Walter White and Jesse Pinkman making the blue within oven cleaner.. is that a P2P Cook?

The front end might have been from another car. Just a guess as its so diffrent from the rest. 2x👍 for the oven cleaner.

I would bet the DA would take that hood down 😆

It looks like you used quite a few cans to clean this up I'm curious how many it took to get it to this point! That looks much better now!
