Roger,

Unless the cabinet is REALLY rough, I'd say have it bead-blasted.  That 
uses glass beads in lieu of sand used in sand blasting.

It sure removes the paint and primer, BUT it won't remove the metal - 
UNLESS whomever is doing it hasn't a clue!

I've had several items done that way.  It was worth it!

My $0.02 worth.
