Experiance Rawing Sunday/Odyssey Parts?

If it won't come off with stripper, and I have to use sandpaper, then I'll probably polish it up a bit.

Good luck. I had a pretty nice result after polishing. Was quite stoked with it but i'd recommend a powdercoat clearcoat instead of spraypaint. Looks shit quite fast.
And i think i do pretty awesome job spraying so i guess it's just the way spray paint protects the raw metal.

Bunky:
Wow, what did you use to polish it? That's a mirror like finish.
master:
I've never stripped a black magic coated part, but the Odyssey Lumberjacks I stripped took freaking forever with aircraft stripper. At least 6 coats of the stuff and lots of scraping.
powell:
half the time depending on where you are its easier to just get them media blasted. I got a set of bars and forks done for 20 dollars. and I never would have been able to take it down that well by hand.
Bunky:
What did it look like after you got your stuff media blasted.
At this point with how much I work, I'd totally be will to drop my stuff off somewhere and pay 20 bucks to have it done.
