I think the question was not so much about paint strippers per se, but rather, what tools should be used with the paint strippers? I would imagine a plastic vegetable brush is one possibility. A pad of brass wool (BRASS wool), i.e. Brillo (NOT chore-boy steel wool) is another possibility, as the brass is MUCH MUCH softer than the steel and chrome.
