Default Interior repaint - nasty job

My shop is restoring the interior (a 6 to 8 week job!). The dash.... and now doorsare being repainted. Disassembly, stripping, and repainting is nasty job.Just removingthe window vent was a hassel. How many of you have done this?

With all the detail,interior painting seems much more diificult than exterior painting.

Don't sand too hard on that door. You will losse the grain. Use chemical stripper and a scotch brite pad only.

My guy is amazing. He got thewindow ventout within a couple of minutes. If you've never tried it, you have to remove the key screw and angle itin a number of directions to ease it out. NO WAY would I ever try it.
