Removing Lacquer

Hello,

I bought a rather scrappy bike frame with the idea of "doing it up". Unfortunately, I seem to be stuck quite early on.

The bike frame has lots of faded lacquer (pics to follow) which has led to white swirls all over the frame. I thought i'd remove them using nitromors (from an aerosol) but, after two days of applying coat after coat, the swirls are still there. I've used an entire can now.

I then decided to go out on a limb and try using acetone. That didn't work either.

Am I doing something wrong? Why does nitromors work for everyone else, but not me?

Apparently, the nitromors in a tin (that you apply using a brush) is stronger. Should I try that?
