What takes paint off car the easiest without going to bare metal?

The fastest way to remove paint from a metal surface without a wholesale "stripping" of that surface is sanding. And power sanders, either the electric or pneumatic sanders, will do the job nicely. It will be up to the user to keep the surface of the abrasive pad flat against the surface to avoid "digging through" it. And a light touch with the correct pad will get the paint off quickly without ripping through to the metal underneath. A 220 grit pad is not too rough that you can't control it, and not too fine that it takes all day to do the job. The thinking here is for automotive applications. If you have a different problem, you'll have to adapt what is here, or perhaps ask a different question. Noise and dust might be a problem, either for you or for "neighbors" who might be affected by your activities. Think through the setup to find the right place and time to do the work.

Was 1986 Chevrolet pickup painted with laquer paint and if so what sort of paint can i use without going down to bare metal?
Factory finish would have been an enamel paint. Even if it has been repainted, it is most likely enamel also. If the paint is old you can probably paint it with anything without it raising the old finish. If in doubt, you can spray a sealer on first and then the paint.
