Polishing Iroc Rims

Im going to be polishing my (single vein) Iroc rims. I also need to repaint them. SOO, im planning on stripping the paint and then polishing. I have two questions.

What should i use to strip the paint?
Also, does anyone have any pics of just the regular aluminum Iroc rims without paint? I wanna see how it looks just all polished without paint.

Thanx

Personally, I think the '85-'87 rims look kick-*** with black paint. The stock gray paint looks very good as well. Polished with no paint looks "ethnic" IMHO, but to each his/her own.

You might find an article on this in the Tech Articles section; I recall seeing one just like what you're looking for.
