I’m reading up on my options to mechanically and/or chemically remove the OEM bike paint on a steel bike frame I’m working on.
I’m leaning towards a chemical option as I have only a single layer of paint to remove and I’d like to leave a smooth finish on the metal. I was considering one of these:

So far I’ve found Eastwood Exo-Armour:

Basically I’m curious what the automotive guys use and what yall consider best practice.
I’d appreciate any advice you have!! Thanks!
