In my experience any media that will not strip paint, ie, crushed walnut 
shells, plastic bead blasting, etc. will simply bounce off of grease and/or old 
undercoating which is ineffective and messy.  Even aggressive stuff like Black 
Diamond will have a tendency to do the same, and will certainly eat paint when 
it gets through.  If your frame is immovable and you prefer to stay in the 
garage, Kano Laboratories makes a superior degreaser that can be purchased by 
the gallon.  These are the same folks that make AeroKroil, the best penetrant 
I've found, ever.  Have your tarp or drip pans ready and brush away.  I've used 
old wooden paint paddles and plastic bondo spreaders for removal.  It takes 
time, but may fit your application.
