Need advice on removing paint on redwood ceiling

Inside our Eichler, our ceiling is made of natural redwood panels (stained I assume). Outside, these same panels have been painted. We'd like to get rid of this paint so they can match those inside, allowing a flow from inside to outside as in original Eichlers. Any suggestions on how best to remove the paint and get the same natural look we have inside? Thanks!

We used PeelAway7 to strip our interior ceilings and then re-stained them with Cabot Dune Gray. It was a horrible, long job, but you might be able to find someone to do it for you. We are planning on painting the exterior redwood with a color that closely matches the stained interior redwood.
