Prop paint?

Filing some nicks out of the prop this week gave me a chance to have a closer look. The expoxy prop paint is getting pretty eroded in some places. My IA said at last annual, he doesn't like paint since it can hide cracks. What experience and or opinions do you have out there?
I have black on both front and back. Is there harm in using aircraft paint stripper on an aluminum prop, if I decide to make the front bare? Thanks for educating me.

Flying is dangerous. If you think otherwise, you are new at this sport. Mind the gravity not the gap.
