What to use to remove paint from my ATV plastics

[APExtreme1944]

Traded for a 1985 Suzuki LT250 with thick green paint that's peeling and cracking.

Want to remove all the the paint and start fresh.

Anyone know of something that's effective and won't hurt the plastic.

Appears to have multiple coats.

Any help will be appreciated...

i use dollar store sink/dishes green scouring pad rectangle fuzzy things to sand it down/ then try to hide the bad looking spots with a darker color (if you look close you see the imperfections)

I like to wrap this type of plastic around everything

i like to use these neodymium magnets to pin this plastic to metal bars to avoid having to masking tape it

I use a piece of plastic tied on by a rope overtop of a table like this as a paint table for old rusty parts that get taken off of the machines

(sand all the rust off with the scouring pads/sometimes use the air tool/ wire spinny wheel dremel tool

(but if the part looks super rusty idk if the dremel will put holes in it.

You can try oven cleaner, sometimes that will bubble the paint but shouldn't hurt the plastic.  If you can get it to bubble a little, a pressure washer will do the hard work.

Lots of times on paint that is that badly done, you'll get the paint off only to find that they sanded it with 36 grit and ruined the plastic.
