I think the paint and varnish remover sold under the Kleenstrip brand might have methylene chloride in it. As for repainting it alkyd enamel spray paint always worked for me, you can also use the special plastic paint too but that was really designed to stick to polyethylene, Bakelite doesn't have that bonding problem so much.
