About to shop out and clear coat a tron le. I have cleared many B/W titles but never a stern, much less a tron le. A couple questions.

1.Anyone ever had issues removing mylar from a stern? I would use freeze spray.
2. Anyone had issues with weird reactions to paint, etc. Or is it the same as a typical 90s B/W title?

Bump, almost positive I should treat this the same as a 90s title.

I just did a tron pro. Mylar came off very easy, just used a heat gun. Only thing I would say you should be careful for is when you pull up the wireforms, it was hard to get them up without a little bit of splintering. I had to touch up a couple places but nothing to bad.

I have done a few sterns with auto clear.

Mylar came off easy. Started to disassemble.
