Default Refurbishing old bookcases

Hi Everyone.
I recently purchased a four-stack of metal barrister (I am not sure of
what kind) bookcases.
There are currently painted (although the paint has peeled in some
places) and also have removeable metal-rimmed sliding glass doors. What
are my options for refinishing them? Can I polish them to a shine?
Should I strip the paint (how?) and add a new coat (which kind would I
use?)
Thank you very much for your advice.
