| Re: how do i strip models? I've heard simple green works great. I used Brake Fluid. The models sat in a metal bucket over night, then were scrubbed with a toothbrush, then dried, then scrubbed again. It worked! About 75-85% of the paint came off!

| Re: how do i strip models? yea there is really a variety of things to use. I think paint thinner is the best. Pinesol is also great for plastic. the problem is since your stripping paint you really have to worry about melting the plastic on the models, caues you loose a lot of detail that way :P |
