      Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.

          Really? Well - brake cleaner will f-up almost anything - so I can see that working.

          I hear people use a wire wheel.

              I am using paint stripper. It would have been easier to do without it. And now I have to strip to the bare metal instead of just painting on the stock baked primer

                  I haven't used it, but there are a few right ups around here for using aircraft stripper

                      Use an angle grinder with a wire brush, quick and easy

                              Yeah by the all of the scratches have to be sanded out to 220 grit. The front is totally stripped but for the back I think I am going to try to just sand it level.
