Default Paint Stripping Whats your method?

I'm always curious as to methods or likes and dislikes of others for doing certain processes on a restoration, this got my mind in grinding on the process of stripping paint. My preference has been to chemical strip my bodies and just use media where rust only is a issue. My reasoning is that the bodies went through a hot iron phosphate process before paint, and I have noted a blasted body will rust quite fast here versus a chemical strip body. I just use a steam cleaner and Aircraft stripper, this is the bottom result on a "A" body.

The red is some primer left over.
