Paint Stripper on Radiators

HiI've got 2 radiators where the paint (not sure if it's gloss) ispeeling away and it's obvoiusly been painted over many times as it'sthick slabs of paint coming off. I can't keep on ignoring the problemso I'd like to take the radiators back to metal, prime and do the jobproperly.However, how's best to do this? I've bought some paint stripper buthave since heard that this is not advisable. I've attacked theradiators with knives and coarse sandpaper but the only parts of theradiator that are stripped right back are the bits where it's peeledoff. This only accounts for about 20% and it just looks a completemess.Any advice on the right kind of paint stripper or doing this jobanother way would be much appreciated!ThanksHelen
