stripper?
Here is my $0.02. If you are completely blowing the car apart, I would (and did) use paint stripper. As you can see, I had some really good help! If the car is going to be completely disassembled, the parts could be thoroughly cleaned off and rinsed; leaving no problems for the future. If you don't completely disassemble the car, I would not use stripper. IMHO, there is too much of a chance that some of the chemical could hide in a nook or cranny and cause some unpleasant problems later. Then, I'd go with 80 grit sandpaper on a DA. Lots of 80 grit. I see people using a sanding disc too long thinking they are being wise and frugal. "This sanding disc is still cutting OK. Too Early to change it." If you use the disc past the point where it is cutting well, you are wasting time. When I feel the disc is no longer cutting well, I put on a new one. It may cost a few bucks more, but it will be faster.
