The only problem is that it turns clear plastic yellow.
Tuper glue also become fogged and easy to remove.

Tnother tutorial for removing a layer of residue ths comes from metal models.
You may notice that metal models come with a layer of some syhing hard too remove.

I'm moving this into painting and modelling as we already have a definitive guide to paint stripping:

Whoops sorry
syhrus nver had a problem even with industrial sized

I used the tutorial legoburner posted many times and does not harm plastic. It will eat GS though. But now I use rubbing alcohol and an ultrasonic cleaner. 10 minute strip.
