Also Darrell (cook_dw) and James (firstgenaddict) have posted to share fantastic results of their own preservation techniques and tips.

If metallic paint the Mequiars 7 works well.

If using any aggressive form (power tools or wool pads) be very careful not to burn through, especially on any edge or crown, that will ruin your day quickly.

I use a digital paint guage to ensure how much paint is being removed
