I have a titanium frame that has a very thin plasctic coating instead of paint that I want to remove. I have peeled some off around the bottom bracket and there is no undercoat. I tried some paint stripper but it didn't even leave a mark so I'm wondering what the options for removal might be.

Media blast?
Heat gun?
Sand paper?
Laser eyes?

I’d try a heat gun first then move onto chemicals.
