I already stripped mine (bad white undercoat because of dry air, got all textured) and it went somewhat okay.
I mean the paint did go off well, but I had some problems with assembly and at some point the superglue got weakened and it openened a little bit.
Nothing to worry about though, I cleaned it, dried it and reglued it, went all fine.
I used glanzer (the green one) and it worked great.
Regarding the size, I used a bucket, put all the glanzer in, added RWJF and a weight si it stays fully under the liquid. At the end I used so coffee filters (2 at a time, change when paint clogs too much) and a funnel to refill the bottle ^^
