As long as they are all metal, bypass Simple green, go straight to acetone based fingernail polish remover.

I really should get a medal, or even a certificate from Castrol for all the product plugging I do for them
HEres what you do
1. goto an autozone/walmart and walk to the auto section
2. pick THIS UP!
3. set the minis in a vat for a about a day or so.
4. enjoy the nice new minis.
Watch out tho, this stuff loves skin, so wear some rubber/latex gloves. Its a gallon, and under $10

I can testify to the effectiveness of this stuff. I took three layers of paint off of my poor abused plague marines.

Not sure if you get this stuff in Yank Land, but it will strip a metal model in minutes (you still have to brush the paint off). Completely dissolves GW plastic though. Very nasty stuff and needs to be treated with respect if you like your skin where it is...

First played 40k during 2nd edition, missed out 3rd and 4th, and haven't played 40k since 5th edition - but still read and occasionally paint  |

Yea Castrol will burn the hell out of your skin as well. BUT So far Ive heard it doesnt hurt any minitures. Someone even said they tried it on GS and it was fine ( I havnt tried that personally so I cant say weather it does or not) But on metals and plastics the Castrol is just amazing
