Default Stripping Risers?

I don't like the black risers on my Fatbob, what's the best way to strip them? I would rather have polished aluminum.

walked someoen through this last week... get some gasket stripper and soak them down... that will eat through the powder, then polish them up... air craft stripper will work as well but will take 10x's as long.

They're in but I'm getting ready to put in my 30T pulley and a few other things, the weather hasn't been good for riding in the last few days so my plans changed.
