the easiest way,the fastest way,or the neatest way?

heat gun and a scraper, hammer and chisel, paint stripper and scraper are the 3 methods I've used before.

Also go for a jog every day.
Doesn't help if you strip weight out of the car but you weigh 95kg yourself.
Not saying you do but it can't hurt :).
