    Garnett blasting is the way to go.

    Except for large flat panels leave that to hand striping via chemical or orbital discs.

    How far do you want to go?

    Sandblasting saves a lot of work.
    Paint stripper builds character!
    Here's some results after sandblasting. (That's if I just learnt how to upload photos as per the "How To" section)

    Thanks everyone. Reading the above, I'm leaning towards bead blasting provided it gets rid of bog etc. I like the look of the sandblasting in James' post but worry it might be a bit harsh on the metal. If a sandblaster can convince me he/she will take care, I might go that way. I'll let you know. Cheers, Nige
