Bikes: '84 Schwinn le tour luxe, unknown Vesta

i tried applying the Jasco in the cool of the night last evening, still working slowly, with no wrinkling like i've gotten before using stripper. The bike being an '84, I doubt it's powdercoated, but I wouldn't be able to identify if it was. I think I'll try the heat gun in my garage - I've got a torch, but a bit afraid of using it on my cromoly frame, don't really know the tolerances for it - and if not that, I'll run to the auto store and get some aircraft stripper!

UPDATE: w-t-f-, heavy-duty milwaukee heat gun set to high and nada. what is this paint made of? (I should note here that i'm replacing it not only to chance colors, but because there were flakes and a few rust spots, so it's not impregnable) Off to get aircraft stripper
