Hi Pat; why do you want to remove all the paint? Where is the pitting? In the paint or do you have some rust pits? Did you get rid of all the rust the first time you painted it? You have several choices for paint removal. You can use a chemical stripper, sandblast, soda blast, or you can sand it off (which I wouldn't recommend as if you're not careful can remove alot of metal). If you have a good sandblaster in the area who knows how to blast sheet metal he can remove the paint and rust and some of the bondo. A stripper will remove the bondo with several applications.
Chemical stripping is a messy and tedious way to do it, but is doable.
Soda blasting works well because it does not cause the heat an potential warping that sand blasting will. I had my Ford 850's hood and fenders sandblasted with no problems.
