Re: [T3] Paint Removal

I'm doing an off the pan resto, on a budget. I'd like to get info on what chemicals people have used to strip paint, stuff I can use in my own garage. What I really want to do is strip all the body parts, and the chassis if possible and have it powder coated. This might be a little too ambitious, but I have access to my dad-in-law's powder coating shop. I could conceivably use it for sandblasting off all the paint, but the shop is 300 miles from me, and I'd really rather do all the stripping myself. If it has to be by hand-sanding, I can deal with that. But if there's ANYTHING that could make it a little easier (and still do it myself) I would really appreciate the info. 
Thanks for your interest!

Tell us more about what you'd like to
do and we can spout our various opinions with a little more aplomb.
Are you doing spot repairs, a full pan-off resto, what?
