Doh, now that I look at that more carefully, I see that it says strip, not stir.

I'd use Castrol Super Clean as my first choice, Easy Off oven cleaner as my second.

I have a little Badger paint stirrer that I bought for about 7 bucks at the lhs. I love this thing and won't go back. Before I had it, I used toothpicks or chopsticks. I'd grab the little stirrer though if I were you.
