Under coating gun
One thing I found to work EXCELLENT in applying a heavy stripper of any kind is a 3M undercoating gun. Most strippers mention using a brush or regular spray gun. I found using the undercoating gun under low pressure applies a nice heavy even coat of the stripper, therefore sealing the vapors in nicely. I found the NAPA brand stripper to work great in this gun. It's a heavy yellowish pastey stuff and works well. If you can heat up the panel in the sun first or if indoors use a heat lamp until the panel is hot, it really helps.
I'm sure this gun would work well with any heavy product.
When using a brush it tend to cause thick and thin uneven areas when applying. It also "breaks" the previous brush strokes vapor seal when you overlap it with the next brush stroke. So you end up with lines of stripped and unstripped areas.
