What's a signature?

Fastest and easiest way to strip it is with a bead blaster, or a Dremel with a wire brush head. Then be prepared to spend some time with some 2000 grit sandpaper and steel wool. Finally, it's back to the Dremel with the polishing compound and the buffing wheel.

if u need a dremel, u can borrow mine, I can loan in to you next game and whenever u finish just give it back at another game. I don't have that kind of tip though, so u'd have to get it, I think they go for like $7 at home depot.
