Removing paint from Aluminium windows

[nww]

As title suggests looking at quicker simpler method.

Have aluminium windows not the anodised but straight aluminium.

Had great success on the inside with paint stripper and steel wool
came up like new even removing the salty corrosion.

So have two outside front windows which have been painted red
and plan to bring them back to original.

Can only think of more paint stripper and possibly looking for
a drill attachment to buff off the paint and corrosion, I know
I can get some rough looking steel brushes but these would
would leave a lot of damage.

Anyone have any experience.

is the paint the original finish ie powder coated or has someone hand painted? if it's the latter then paint stripper but there will be spots that you can't get into like the track.
if it is powder coated then a light sand and coat with penetrol before painting.

Yeah they have been hand pained over the original aluminium.

Plan is to paint strip and steel wool again but the tracks could be a pain.

I was hoping someone has a magic answer.

Ok an update.

So none of you had the magic answer I was looking for and did it the hard way.

Paint stripper , scrapper , chisel , screw driver and 2 boxes of soapy steel wool.

Took about 4 hours per window , thankfully only two were painted.

You actually polish it up to new aluminum with the soapy steel wool.
Looks like new, but this method is only for plain aluminum not power coated
or anodized aluminum.
