Hey Kenny - saw the picture of the Tempros I sold you and figured this must be you...at least I hope it is

I'll be picking up a Slingerland floor tom in blue sparkle that has been painted black, and a search on paint removal led me to your posts regarding the Stage Band save.
Great job by the way.
My question is how exactly did you remove the paint? I think I remember you settling on Graffiti remover, but did you spray it directly on the drum or on the cloth?
Any pointers you can share would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Best,
Lee
