Because it's epoxy, very few solvents are able to cut it. The way it's
done professionally is to bake it off in an oven at about 700/800
Degrees (cure temperatures for powder coat are usually about
400degrees). This high temperature will turn the powdercoat to ash.
You
can accomplish the same thing without an industrial oven by blazing
it off
with a propane torch. After that a touchup with media blast will
give the
surface a final cleanup.
