Subject:      getting paint off LP tank?
Comments: To: vanagon@vanagon.com

howdy,

I just removed the LP tank from the westy and want to clean it up and
repaint it before winter gets here.

What's the best way to get that white paint off?  I obviously don't have
access to a sand blaster or glass bead'r; and I don't want to chew up the
fittings?

Will a chemical type paint remover work, or will that destroy the metal too?

Any info will be greatly appreciated.
