Default Removing Paint from Stock Hood

Some paint is missing from my hood and I'd like to take the rest of it off and just go with the flat black hood until I upgrade to a fiberglass hood in a few weeks. I know it sounds strange but if you saw it you'd be on the same page, that said, What is the best way to remove the paint from the stock hood without damaging the hood itself?

I will be taking the hood off and removing the rest of the paint tomorrow so any suggestions would be appreciated.

No, the hood is actually a flat black under the paint. So I just want to remove the rest of the paint. I won't be doing any painting or sanding etc. Just looking to know what paint remover to use.
