As I really want to get this project off the ground, I needed to strip the paint off the F&F ahead of sending to sawzall to remove the crushed tube damage.
Looked on the forum on removing powder coat, joined a chemistry forum to understand thermoplatsics and solvents and then headed out to buy respirators, Goggles and all the usual stuff....
£60 and 4 hours later (I ran out of stuff) - I can safely say that Gasket Cleaner & Nitromors both fetch Powder Coat off - HOWEVER - they need the magic banned ingriedent substance.
I am heading back on my lunch Monday to buy more just in case it gets taken off the shelves. You cannot buy this stuff in any normal retailers B&Q etc as it has cancer warnings on the tin. Plus its not green!

Before, a lovely deeep Golden Yellow colour............
