Use a good quality paint/epoxy remover (I use Jasco). Scuff the finish with 80 grit paper before for applying the stripper, it breaks the "surface tension" so to speak and allows the stripper to get into the finish rather than sitting on it. Wrap it in AU foil until softens, then go to work carefully with a plastic scraper. Repeat. It's time consuming and a PITA, but it will come off. I use acetone for a final rinse.
I hate wood stocks with a passion.
But when I've had to do this, the above method works very well.
