Figured I would share my experience with the wonder that is biostrip.
Had 2 models I wanted to strip,think they are from the BFM 40k set.
first up is a front and rear view of the models before i started.


here is what they look like with the goo on them (was brushed on more on that later)

After the first round this is what they looked like with what i presume is chaos black spray remains


Another round and this is the result.



Now I also wanted to try partial/controlled stripping.
Again goo was applied with a brush.


As you can see the bow has been stripped but the hand is still painted.
Excellent if you just need part of a model stripped.
Would advise caution and I placed the model so that any dripping would fall down off the model and not onto other parts.

Lastly I had the thought that if the stuff works on models what about a brush ?
I used a brush that I had with about a 2mm band of caked on paint at the top

After using that brush for the models and leaving it full of goo in between rounds I ended up with this.

Brush is now free of paint and is as plyable and soft as when I first bought it.
This stuff even saves your brushes and I would guess something like the large GW drybrush will benefit greatly from this as it can easily get a bit clogged up with paint.
