    Here's one thread:

    It's in the woodgrain forum under Cosmetic... on the main menu.

    Also, check out my Roller Paint thread, where I stripped it:

    The short story is to use regular paint stripper (LePage's Poly Strippa). Only do an area of 1.5 sq. ft. (approx. 15" X 15") and scrape off, gently one layer at a time, after it bubbles. overlap by a few inches each time. Wash off the residue with water, then Mineral Spirits. Finally, if you have to fill scratches, holes etc. use the normal Body repair techniques before applying the new stuff.
