Zip strip, took off most of it. I recommend you buy the best you can afford, I had some inexpensive stuff from home dept and it took forever.

What paint is that? Looks great!

I use zip strip on motors all the time...gotta degrease it first...Zip strip won't eat grease.

But that stuff is wicked it eats right through most latex or rubber gloves...

Nice! A torque converter bike! My Trail Horse Rat bike was the second bike I bought (in my adult life).
