I just stripped a Trek 610 that had Imron as the original paint. It is tough paint. I am glad I don't have the cable guide braze ons! I have used a wire wheel on a 3/8 drill and then follow up with a dremel for the hard to reach places. I have gun smithing files that I have been using to get to the really tough places while cleaning up the brazing. I was surprized how much is hidden with paint!
