Stripper.

Lost in the replies was this tidbit:

Here in California, we haven't been able to get good stripper for years. I've found the "green" stuff (some kinda citric acid based crap) actually works pretty good. BUT only if I scuff the surface with 60 grit or coarser sandpaper first.

Sorry about that flingdingo, I'm going to give that a shot also. Your right, scuffing the surface will allow the stripper to get better penetration. I haven't tried the green stuff yet, maybe next. Thanks for pointing that out.
