WTF Fuch stripping problem

I've stripped more than a few Fuchs in my time using paint stripper and/or oven cleaner. Never a problem. Until last weekend.....

A 16x6 and a 7 defied my best attempts....the other 7 peeled and bubbled right away. All are real, both 7s have the same serial number and appear to be mates and were bought from the same source......

Any ideas?

Try aircraft stripper (brand name) it cuts right through tough polyurethane paints and everything else. One thing, the EPA keeps reducing the bad stuff (read good stuff) in stripper so try to find that old stuff. The water based stuff is crap.
