I bought some old ovens that had been painted several times with who knows what sort of paint, I hit them with paint stripper which took off several layers of yellow paint but wouldn't take off the black paint that was underneath. As SJ suggests I then put them in a fire which did the trick, in saying that I don't think it'll work with "Pot Belly Black" paint which has a high heat resistance. Maybe Aart you'll have to resort to the sanding disc.... carefully.

When I die I hope my missus doesn't sell my camp ovens for what I told her I paid for them. pd

fly wire screen & used, some dirt but not as
abrasive as pure sand, takes a while / need

Just saw your reply...
Haven't ever done any sandblasting before.
It nay be an option before using a grinding disc or brush.
