I'm going to pull the console and the bench and everything else that will

Help appreciated.

hardware store... lacquer thinner... chemical resistant gloves...
disposable cloth... rub in lacquer thinner and paint comes right off.
Or there's various paint removers that goop out in a jelly like goo,
that will blister the paint up, then you take a scraper or some type
of spatula and scrape it off. Again, wear chemical resistant gloves
and safety glasses.
