Paint Stripping?

I'd love some advice on paint stripping.

In terms of doors--is Big Apple Stripping still in business? I got their name off an earlier post, but after 3 calls to voice mail, I'm beginning to give up.

Those of you who used East Side Wood Stripping, did you pay the extra for sanding? Or how were they without sanding?

Has anyone used the "Silent Paint Stripper?" I'd love to do much of this myself, but I assume there has to be lead and don't know how freaked out to be. Thanks!

painting a bay

Can anyone recommend the proper paint and primer for painting a galvanized steel bay on the rear of a house? Most of the metal paints I've found don't work on galvanizing. I'm going to have to scrape it, and there a few rust spots, but other than that it's in good shape. Any recommendations for a paint brand?
