Time to try my hand at stripping paint.

Time to try stripping paint, or primer as the case may be. Was using a can of spray primer, and didn't realize until too late that the nozzle was bad. Bumps, splatters, you name it. I got myself some oven cleaner, so I'm crossing my fingers. Wish me luck everyone. I will let you know in a couple of days how it went.

The best thing I have found is Super Clean degreaser. The one in the purple bottle that they sell at Walmart works great. Just soak it overnight and use a brush to clean it up. Most of the time it will come off in sheets. Make sure you use gloves it is hard on the hands. The good thing is if you take the time to strain it you can use it over and over.

Pinesol has worked for me in the past, just let it soak over night. Make sure you clean the model very well after so the paint will stick.

soaking in a brake fluid bath also works.
