| hot female stripper (didn't want to let mudseekers imagination wander too far)with 400 grit emery cloth would be the best possible way that I could think of.......... that is, if your going to paint it back over again... |

| media blasting with either plastic or crushed walnut shells, it will remove the paint without damaging the aluminum

| jasco paint stripper. can be found at lowes and comes in a gel form. it is pricey but literally apply it and take it off. no elbow grease. will not harm the metal. |

| Just sand it then prime it and paint all the paint doesn't need to be removed. |

| Aircraft paint remover, You can get it at autozone, Dont sand it or youll scratch the heck out of the aluminum.
