I have never heard of using vinegar. You just use a rag and dip into the vinegar?
On concern is that paint does not stick to aluminum very well, and the exposed dots of aluminum would be a problem. If I sand I am afraid all the paint will be gone, just cleaning with a scouring pad removes too much.
I was planning on using automotive paint with a spray gun, not house paint. I have another camper that the guy used some kind of house paint on and it looks bad.
