>>1708630>using an angle grinder with a grinding disc to remove paintDefinitely agree. Chemical paint stripper would be much easier and the angle grinder is prone to adversely affect the finish
>didn't clear coat the decals with the color coatThat's common as hell and I don't mind it. Waterford clears under decals. Decals being damaged is fine patina and it means you can remove them.
>Also...all that chain slap during the riding segment...? Oh no it doesn't have a clutched derailer. Big deal. It's probably not going to be ridden like that much. It's fine.
