I have already stripped one Bannister using a heat gun and the wood

Thought I would strip the other aide too but as it is close to the wall
etc I do not wish to use the heat gun on it. I thought of a chemical
stripper .Â* Is there any that the group recommends or should I just be
very careful and use the gun?

Was it ever painted with lead paint ?. If so, using a heat gun
may not be the best solution.
