So i was looking around my garage and saw my white painted lip...
thinking about just going black, (The original urethane color)
How could i strip this white paint off in a dime?

ok, back to work....

I'd try a little chemical stripper spray on the backside to make sure it won't eat the urethane.

any particular brand?

i've been trying to use some aircraft paint remover but it seems ok, but not strong enough to take it out in one wipe....
or if it was stronger, would it mess up the urethane?

or should i just sand that crap down?

[potatoBBQ]

It's kinda tricky because sanding it will change the surface texture of the urethane and using a chemical stripper will usually either eat it or discolor it. If you're able to wipe the paint off with one wipe, it will most likely be eating the urethane too so I would just stick to the aircraft paint remover you already have. If it gets discolored, you can just paint it with the SEM satin black.
