Years ago when we were working on our fixer-upper first home we spent forever removing paint from all the original 1920 woodwork. At that time the Jasco "Speedomatic" was hands down the way to go. Worked much better than regular Jasco which means it probably had horrendous ingredients. We also tried citrus-based strippers and nothing would come close to the Jasco. We joked that we knew it was working when a tiny splash would land on your arm above your gloves and immediately start burning through your skin. After giving plenty of time to air dry we never had issues putting new stain back on the wood.
I currently do restoration of vintage fiberglass things and the citrus strippers work great on those as they're not nearly as aggressive.
