"Aircraft stripper" in a spray can, IIRC bought at AutoZone or the like. Plus some steel wool, sandpaper , and elbow grease. A little bondo in a small top tube dent, and prepped with phosphoric acid before painting. I did use a high build primer because of little rust pits around the lugs, sanded down and reprimed prior to painting the base coat.
And I left this out of my setup post, but this is very important to spray all over the tent prior to painting.
