Default how to remove paint from oem front lip

well i tried to paint my oem front lip with duplicolor and after a while it got chipped and stuff and now i want to repaint it but i want to remove all the old paint. I tried sanding it but not all of the paint will come off. Will paint thinner work on this surface?

U can Paint Thinner on it, and it will come right off, or just sand it off with a low grit sand paper and move up...
