Refurbishing old steam heat radiators b- Ted

Member Posts: 1
the radiators in my 100 year old house are the free standing steam type. A few different sizes.
1. How do I strip them?
They have layers upon layers of old flakey paint and my wife and i are expecting. I want to (no, I need to) remove the paint on them and repaint them. Other than quit my job and dedicate the next year to scraping, does anyone have advice?
2. Replacement?
Any good resources for replacements?
