If you don't mind doing the work yourself, get down to Halfrauds and buy some Nitromors paint stripper, takes a while but costs less than a tenner.
Best to email On-one about the stickers I'd have thought

yeah paint stripper and a wire brush either on a drill or manually to get every last bit off

Dont bother with the free coating, mine was £70 all done, and if I had not chosen a metal flake and a colour he had in stock it would have been £40-50. You will spend money and lots of effort just stripping it yourself.

once you have remove all the components from the frame (everthing)
then give it a clean - soapy water.
then take to a decent coating place - they will strip the old paint/coating off as part of the service.
Armourtex charge £45 for strip and powder coat + £15 extra for an extra gloss coat )inc sparkles if you want) some powder coat colours are quite glossy on their own so don't need the extra gloss - but depends on the colour of the powder and the make.
for that sort of money it is just a waste of time doing it yourself..
they turn a frame around from dropping off in 3 days
