It was paint, not powdercoat. I guess the same applies to paint? (This was factory paint on a carbon frame, so could well have been epoxy/2 pack).

A pity this stuff is all not available in Holland. I have found 2 versions of gasket removers and will give these a try, at least one of these claims to be working for epoxy based coatings as well.

Re:
Aircraft Remover seems to work well from what I remember. Definitely an outdoors type thing with gloves on for protection.

Re:
I've used Starchem SynStryp Paint Stripper on a host of different things including a Hammerite painted frame. It really does just bubble the paint up and off in a couple of minutes.
Whether the general public should be able to get hold of it is a different question, but you can get via Amazon and ebay without any problems.
Follow the instructions about safety and wot not and you should be alright.
I do it outside, wear goggles, gauntlets, a mask and stand upwind while applying it and walk away from the area while it does it stuff. Once it's removed I wash down the parts and dry them. I then just bag them until it's time to repaint.

Before:
After:
Gasket remover works! It works better when the coat is thinner of course so I might sand the black paint down on the right hand side before I attack it with this stuff.
