Need paint stripper advice
Prior to 2019 most brands of paint strippers worked decently because they contained methylene chloride. Then Big Brother banned the ingredient from use in paint strippers available to consumer sales, and now the "hardware store" variety of paint strippers are all pretty much a waste of money.
I am starting a new restoration project and was hoping someone could suggest a brand or source for a stripper that can do some serious removal of automotive/industrial type paint on metal. I don't mean that citrus crap for kitchen cabinets. Thanks in advance for any good info.

I had a multi-layer of spray as well as the original paint on a set of Original fenders...I used a product from Total Boat. Its called Totalstrip Marine Paint & Varnish Remover. I think the web site was called TotalBoat, it was a bit pricey but I just couldn't find anything at the box stores that worked...

Thanks for the lead, but Are you saying that it worked great or so-so.
I checked their web site, they seem to indicate use for varnished wood on boats. Price is not bad for a whole gallon, if it does the job.

I have used totalboat it worked well on the paint and so-so on powdercoat. It took several coats on the powder coat but it did come off. second choice I have used aircraft remover and it was about the same result.
I dont know where you are in PA but I have 9/10 of a gallon of Citristrip that you can have because it is utterly useless! I look for products not available in California then I know they will work! haha

I have tried all of the box store products. Nothing works like the pre-regulation paint strippers. The TotalBoat product worked the best for removing paint off of old, multi-layer projects I have worked on. I did find that you have to keep it off of rubber or plastic as it did soften them up.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
