I've used a number of paint strippers in the past, but none of them seem to cut through both oil and latex based paints with great ease. I've heard of some that are homemade with normal household ingredients, but am afraid of adverse chemical reactions.

My entryway in the house is stained wood, majority of it mahogany. It's beautiful. Over the years, past owners painted over the trip in the rest of the house, and I've counted at least 5 coats of paint that needs stripped. I'd like to take it back to bare wood, and match what's in the entryway.

What paint stripping chemicals do you guys recommend? I'd like something that will strip it with ease, and not leave much residue behind.
