I use power purple with great results. Tempurature is key. I use it on the stove for quick results.

Lynn, I can't tell from the picture exactly what it is your stripping but I recently used something called Testors ELO (easy lift off). I bought it at the local hobby shop and they had it in stock. It's a gel like ZipStrip and did a great job on a 70 Chevelle dash housing. It wrinkles up the paint but doesn't hurt the plastic.
