A Chemical product from O'reillys auto parts. If I remember correctly it was $32 p/gallon.

I use airport stripper with metal scrapers, burns the nose and eyes but sure gets the job done. Just watch where you're doin it, and wear gloves. I triple layer latex gloves and put new ones on every ten minutes. Wear goggles or glasses you DO NOT want this crap in your eyes. If it gets on your skin go wash it or it starts burning lol. Done 3 cars with this, got some stripper on my wrist and didn't notice it, thought it was sweat in a cut, it burned my wrist and left nice mark. Good luck and stay safe with it lol

I use airplane stripper. Put it on thick and let is bubble up the paint then scrape off. Then if there were any tough patches of paint I used a wire wheel to get those spots to save stripper.
