I think the best way it with acetone or MEK, but it sucks because they evaporate fast. I used MEK to strip my A-Arms, and it took it right off. Sanding just plugged up the paper, and don't like using Roloc disks on gasket surfaces that are aluminum. I would probably opt for a long flat file b4 the rolocs.

if you know what you're doing, it won't remove any metal

Note to self, NEVER, buy cases or cylinders from burk.

 

Sorry, I get the thought and I've seen a lot of guys do it and say it's fine, or that they aren't removing material, if there material removed it's supposedly minimal enough to where the gasket will still seal. I'm not a believer. Just my thoroughly educated opinion.
