Best Paint Stripper?


I just bought a 1821 farmhouse with lots and lots of overpainted trim. What is the best stripper to use? I mean one one that really really WORKS!

Soy-gel. It can take off up to 25 coats with an overnight application. Best part, I think it is safe to eat!!

No chemical will remove milk paint.
