Get some heavy duty paint stripper from ACE or Lowes and take the frame and fork to a DIY carwash with power sprays. Put the frame in the sun and brush on the stripper and leave it for a few minutes. You'll see the paint bubble up. Then take it into one of the bays and spray that shizza right off. Worked for me. Repainting is a completely different story. I've never had much success with that.
