So, i've never used the aircraft remover, and personally i have a DA sander and have used it quite a bit but i have smaller crevices in the bumpers/trim that it wont get to, and also i worry about sanding too much and going through the sheet metal. should i just use a fine grit and keep going at it, or should i try the paint remover?

the stripper stuff works great get two cans no matter what. Let it sit for about 5 minutes wipes right off.

good word of warning, do not use aircraft paint stripper on anything other than metal.
