Anyone trying to source an effective product to do the above might wish to take a peek at Master Craftsman's Nitromors Paint & Varnish Remover, and your prayers may be answered for less than a tenner.

Sounds good,I have an Aspidestra stand given to me many years ago in white paint that it could possibly help.

Though keeping on topic a few radios as well.

Hmm, where are you finding this? The "Master Craftsman" badged version of Nitomoors seems not to have been manufactured since about 2006 (when dichloromethane was removed from the formula). Or am I missing something?

I found a defunct listing on eBay for that price and another listing with a battered can. Other than that it does seem to have been discontinued for some time.

Is there a preferred brand for stripping radio cabinets?

It would appear that the item I purchased is no longer available.
