[TR] Paint prep

I am preparing for the refinish of the body on my 3A and have determined  
that I cannot respray the car.  It is now on it's third color and the paint  
has 
become so thick that the last finish has the "alligator" appearance from  
cracking.  The paint needs to be removed.  Obviously the beauty of a  3A is the 
ability to remove the panels easily.  Does anyone on the list  have experience 
with "dip stripping", or is the recommended method the thankless  and agonizing 
task of chemical stripping?  Any input here is  appreciated.  
Happy Holidays to all and thanks for the sanity you guys have imparted over  
the past year!
