Default 92 Blaster

I found a new ride for my 10yr old son. It's gonna cost me $900 and comes with 2 sets of paddle tires. One fits the other doesn't but I have other quads in need of paddles. The person who owned it before my friend painted all the plastics black. What is the easiest way to get all the paint off and bring it back to the white plastics?

I will also need to rebuild the top end and replace the clutches but I can do most of that myself. It has brand new tires all the way around just needs some TLC to make it nice looking again.

I wonder if I can use some type of paint remover on the engine as well, it was also painted black.
