Well if the bars aren't aluminum they should be a grayer color when you raw them. Most likely paint stripper will get the paint off the best. Then to make it really smooth looking I'd usually buff it with something. Clear coat right away if you don't want any rust color mixed in.

What did you use to sand them? Whenever I've sanded my bars I've used old grip tape to sand my bars as it's more coarse than regular sandpaper, then I'd sand it with fine sandpaper to give it a smooth finish and my bars always turned grey like that, maybe it's to do with the particular brand of bars you sanded?
