Reply to "Lionel 259E restoration"

Very nice, I have been intrigued to have a tinplate train for Christmas time around the tree.  Was looking through potential restoration projects and searching this forum.  This is a really nice restoration and I wanted to ask some questions on methods and products.

What is typically used for paint stripping?

what paint is used, spray can etc.?

Is it just gloss paint or do you gloss clear coat too?

Is sanding performed and if so what's general method and grits used?

Hopefully @Signalwoman doesn't mind me posting these questions to her thread, I just went looking for information, this is recent and shows an excellent result in my opinion.

Thanks!
