Sorry for the hijack Rick.
Have you tried a pressure washer ? The force of the water will be more effective on knocking the loose paint off than just air. You could do this with a siphon gun too and a pail of warm water for it to blast with the air.

Figured I would try that when I have the engine out. Won't be any time soon.
