Hi guys I hope this pic posts....it's my rawed and lacquered orange p7 that orange did for me in Halifax uk.
I'm also going to raw and polish my 2010 Specialized big hit but I want to do it myself over the Xmas period but I'm stuck on where to start,any help?? Do I use nitromose to get the paint off??

The nitromors you can buy now is rubbish, the eu have ruled that the best, most active ingredient had to be taken out. Get some paint stripper from an autopaint store, or maybe fill a bottle at a body shop.

I've just done my M3 frame and it took a frigging age to get it all stripped!!

Yeah man, in my opinion it would look pretty sick. I basically raw every used frame I have ever boughten, it's sort of a bad habit. But I think that with the white fork a raw frame would look pretty good. You probably know to keep the linkage black. Parts wise, I can't really see too much, but I would look into a new stem. Can't really tell what bars or shifting. But also maybe some new cranks, then again, it's totally up to you! Good luck, post pictures if you do end up rawing the frame.
