the shower/tub enclosure had been painted once - it's peeling in a spot or two, it was never sealed - or so it seems
Is there an easy way to strip the paint?
I know - replacing the enclosure would be easiest but the enclosure is going to match the walls
so replacing is not an option.
Thanks

I doubt any strippers could be used, so that leaves sanding. If any of the other paint looses it's bond, it will peel too.
Painting tubs/showers is a specialized job. Proper prep and coatings are key to having a good job. Probably the hardest paint job for a diyer to have success with.
