Stripping paint. It's a horrible job, the only thing I've found that really improves it is IR stripping but that can still crack glass. You can tape the glass with aluminium duct tape which reflects the heat, works most of the time.
Speedheater Cobra for the stripper. Something like this for the fiddly bits, other evil retailers are available :-
