	Go to your local auto paint supplier rather than DIY store. I needed something to strip paint off alloy Land Rover panels but DIY stuff didn't touch the base coat. The proper automotive stripped did the job without a problem. However it was £25 for 5 litres. As always it's a case of getting what you pay for. Cheap will probably mean not as effective as dearer and you could end up using a lot more so in the end a lot more work for nil saving !

	£25 for 5 litres is fine only a fiver a litre. Anything that is less than £15 a litre is good by me.

Used for stripping aircraft paint. I don't know current prices but when I enquired a few years ago it was something like £75-£80 for 5 litres.

	Yes, dichloromethane is the stuff. They use it neat on aircraft paint stripping, takes about a thousand to fifteen hundred litres to strip a medium sized jet (depending on the previous paint job)! £80 for five litres sounds very expensive though.

	I bought 5L of dichloromethane last week for about £18 I think it was.

	Starchem synstrip is probably the best stuff most of us can get hold of. It's a lot better than the now useless nitromors
