That guy has great information and tips. I use Rustoleum. Doesn't matter if it's gloss, satin, or flat, it all comes out looking good as long as you sand the enclosure as he does in the video. You can always spray clear coat on top to make it shiny, or leave it flat. Bake it in a dedicated toaster oven for 30 minutes on about 175. Not one that you will be cooking food in as the chemicals will leach into your food. The toaster oven is not necessary but it sure helps dry and cure the paint. To remove paint, I bought one of these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004UUADHQ?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage and attach it to my drill. Lay the drill on it's side on a sturdy table, wear leather gloves, and strip away.
After sanding down my pans I can tell you that I would never want to do it by hand. It would probably take you hours and hours of sanding.
Might be better off asking a friend or relative if you can borrow their sander for a day.
Or if a drill is more in the realm of something doable, I linked to some stuff in an earlier comment.
> If you want to go with another method outlined here you can use a regular drill. Tons of uses for a drill other than sanding down your skillet.

I've had to remove hard foam from a hot tub before so I'm not sure how well it works with the foam insulation you were working with but I was able to remove it pretty well with this on a drill. Makes a mess but it tore through the insulation pretty fast.
Looks cool,
To strip the paint, I'm not sure if this is the best way, but I'd use a grinding brush attached to a powerful drill.
Make sure to use a good mask, old paint dust is nasty stuff.
Apply some rust killer and repaint it white like the old one.
Have fun
if you're wire brushing much of anything you'll want a power brush. something like this in a drill works decently. Next step up is a cheap angle grinder and a cup wheel.
either one will be far far far quicker and easier than doing it by hand.
Scrape it out with a metal spoon.
Heat it in the microwave to melt it.
