If it is stuck on that good, you might want to leave it on. You might try to remove it with MEK, but wear gloves, and a respirator, and do it outdoors!
I also started with a paint remover, but after the first few tubes I decided to not remove the old paint. I just sanded the old paint real good and painted on top. I etched bare aluminum spots and primered the whole thing. I think it came out pretty good. I am by no means a paint job perfectionist; I just wanted the new paint to be strong.
