I want to cut up some old small engine blocks to melt down and cast steam engines. What is the best way to get the paint off of the block?
When I said it will "burn off"...some will; some will end up in the dross. You will skim off the dross before you pour so you have a shiny metal surface on top of your melt. If you were using something like cans, you may have more dross than metal so that becomes a problem. A little dross is expected and OK.
