It's called "Aircraft Remover" - made by http://www.kleanstripauto.com. Sold
at Auto Zone (and other places as well, I would imagine) here in the
US...don't know if you have them in Canada.
Most of the paint's been off of my car since late winter - no treatment of
any kind. So far, it's lasted through the humidity of summer without a hint
of rust (other than what I found when I stripped the paint in the first
place! YMMV.
So far, it's taken 3 gallons (@ $20 ea) and will probably need at least two
more - and that's just for the wings, doors, bonnet and boot lid. Stripped
the tub with a rotary wire brush and will have the front apron blasted (some
pitting and I want to make sure I get it all).
If anyone does have a suggestion as to what can be used to prevent rust
before application of any primer or paint, I'd be interested in knowing as
well. I know rust is inevitable...it IS a Brit car, after all!
