(OP)
Is there a certain type of paint stripper that can be use on steel that will not cause hydrogen embrittlement or any other detrimental issues.

RE: paint stripper on Steel

Unclesyd is correct-- acid-based strippers can cause embrittlement while alkaline-based should not.  There are many options available from respected vendors.
