Just sand with 220 grit, prime and repaint. No need to strip them.

X2 striping with chemicals gets rather messy. I only do that to stuff that has several thick coats on it.

I think 3M makes some decent stuff in a can. I am painting my stockers black and will be using the paint stripper first to get them completely paint free.

I used a wire wheel on a airgun. Looks good. Primed and repainted.
