Ok, Tom - I managed to put my foot in my mouth again. i did see the sides being Turquoise. So how do you strip it and preserve the turquoise? I knew of a man who had a business that was a baking soda(?) power washing. It could remove paint and leave the primer.
 
Phil, I'd use a good paint stripper such as Franmar Blue Bear to remove the paint. That should take it off the porcelain without any problem, as porcelain enamel is not disolved by solvents. Hopefully they didn't use any abrasives to prep it before painting. Obviously any painted sections would need repainted to match.

Good to know - again, aw.org is always a great resource thanks to you guys. I'm not going to be buying these, but if someone does, I hope they get your hints, Tom and Jeannine. Thanks for mentioning.
