What is the best/safest way to remove the paint, and do you know someone who has done this?

Thanks!

Any metal refinishing shop should have options. The companies that do powder coating or anodizing will have a blasting system. If the metal below is aluminum then a bead blast may work best. They are little plastic pellets that won't pit the soft metal below. The can also use sand or ground walnut shells.
