Any suggestions for stripping the white paint off these drivers and 816's?
Do the cabinets have a textured vinyl covering on them? Mine does..... and then latex wall paint. I figured I'd just go right over it with a layer of plywood..... like maybe 3/8ths.
What are your cabinets made of? The spec sheet may say plywood, but mine is actually an OSB like material.

As far as stripping paint off the VIT's I'd check out the various strippers used for boats and Corvettes.......both made of fiberglass. Actually, many strippers likely address fiberglass. I have one called SoyGel that is nice to use. It's "safe" on fiberglass although it says not to let it sit for prolonged periods. If it's just latex, I doubt you'd need to let it sit for too long anyway. I've never used it on fiberglass myself. The nice thing is that it's a soy based product and isn't as harmful as one of the old fashioned strippers, but it actually seems to work unlike some of the other "safer" strippers.
