Body filler can be removed in a variety of ways.
Grinding(sanding) is effective but makes a lot of dust and noise.
Stripper works, too, but takes a lot of applications if the filler is thick, and it's messy.
If there's a lot, and it's thick, I like to use heat, such as a propane torch, or a mild flame from an oxy-acetylene set up. No dust, and no gooey mess from the stripper, but it stinks, instead. It works pretty fast, and doesn't require enough heat to do any damage
