Default Re: powder coat removal question

I'm doing the same thing to a couple of motorcycle wheels right now. I found the easiest way to paint the stripper on is to use a wide, shallow galvanized bucket that I found at Home Depot for about $14. I set the wheel in, pour about a quart of stripper in, and start slopping it all over the wheel, over and over, for a half hour or so. Sometimes it takes that long for the stuff to come off. The bucket is sure nice compared to setting the wheel on a piece of cardboard or whatever and brushing the stuff out of a cup. The key seems to be keeping it wet with fresh stripper for a good long time.
