Pat, may I suggest you call Chuck Bishop ( Greene's Guns) from the directory and ask him? He is doing that commercially with those redone repros. All I know is that people report that they had a difficult time getting the finish off.

I used "Zip-Strip" (nasty stuff) and it took several applications and plenty of elbow grease. You'll want to recut the checkering too. Here's an after picture of my oil refinished 28 ga Repro., followed by the before view with the original Urethane finish.
