I stripped them all with paint stripper. Then I etch primed it and sprayed it a silver colour which almost exactly matches bare ally!

unfortunately the etch primer I used was clearly poo poo as after about 5 years it started erupting in tiny bubbles all over it and now the finish is hosed :(

I would love to respray it again but I dread re-stripping it.

Could you not media blast it with baking soda or something?

Years ago I used aircraft stripper to strip a Mini shell, and it's probably still one of the most tedious/infuriating automotive experiences of my life.
