what's the best way to remove lead paint base, and do I need to go to the bare wood or as close as I can get it?

In most states, the only way to remove lead paint is to hire a licensed lead abatement company. Check your state laws. If there are no state laws on it, you still need to follow federal laws. https://www.epa.gov/lead/lead-based-paint-activities-professionals
