i am thinking this is the right place to put this.

i bought a set of si's the only problem is that some F#$%^$ retard painted them. i was wondering if any one has some secrets on how to get them back to there original state. my bro says aircraft stripper but i dont want to damage any of the aliminum. i have a sand blaster but not to sure if that will pit it either.... any help or ideas would be nice
