My console has a bug! How to strip a console lid...

[davepl]

Well, after two days of work on my console I was finally putting the last coat of clear on it, and a bug landed on it. Looks like I'm going to have to sand it out, but it's a little sketch sanding textured surfaces.

If worse comes to worse and I can't fix it, what's a safe mechanism for stripping all the paint back off it? It's just the lid, which is some kind of cheap metal.

I have a blast cabinet but no really soft media, and I'm just not sure how "tough" the surface on these console lids really is. Anyone stripped one before?
