Default Looking at stripping the car myself

I wanted to be a bit more involved in the bodywork side of my color change so I am looking at stripping the car prepping the metal myself. Wondering what the standard process is for strippng the paint with a wheel. Stepped grit wheels to keep from scratching the panels. 180 grit to start? Is it better to use a flapper style wheel or a flat disc for this sort of thing? Thanks.
