I've heard claims that paint stripper (n-methyl-2-pyrrolidone  type)
works. I think they use a cocktail of fuming nitric and another acid
commercially (hot and sprayed under pressure). None of this is stuff
I'd want around. The lab supply houses charge a lot of money, the
storage and disposal costs are high.
