The process I use to prepare a Singer 221 Featherweight for a repaint. I explain how and why I remove the main shafts and gears, including how the excellent Singer engineering makes it easy to reassemble these critical parts correctly. I also explain how I use chemical stripper to strip off the original factory paint, mask and prepare the parts, and prime with self-etching priming. The Featherweight shown here, along with many others, is available on my website: featherweightguy.com.
