Default Paint removal

This has probably been covered a hundred times. But I got a stock honcho body that someone already had painted. What is the best way to remove the paint to redo it.
Thanks

Dot4 brake fluid rub it on with a shop towel and let it sit for 3-5 hours come back every 30-45 min and rewet the body so because the fluid will pool at the bottom if u dont. I dont know the link but theres a youtube video out on it. I had a paint job get water in it and ruin it the other day and this stuff took every bit of it off.

I've tried more than 5 hours inside the fluid and did not worked, axial paint is very strong.
