I want to strip this of paint, but the most part of it is far too intricate to use normal sandpaper on. How else could I get it all off?

Cheers.

Nice one, will check it out. Is it the sort of thing you could get from Focus or similar?

Edit - going by their site it is. Will get down there soon. Cheers

Yep that's the one I got

I'm a bit worried about messing it up but it could always be stripped again

Plus it's not like it cost £50 or anything.
