If you can find simple green, the household cleaner, use that.

Others will recommend brake cleaning solution, or if the models are metal paint thinner.

There are lots of threads on this try searching.

Google is your best friend.

Search the following applicable phrases (copy and paste):

North America use the following-
40k + plastic paint stripping
40k + simple green
40k + purple power
40k + paint removal

Eurasia use the following-
40k + paint removal
40k + plastic paint stripping
40k + dettol
40k + fairy magic spray

You'll find articles, how-to's, and videos explaining how to complete your task. Even if you search here on Dakka, there are (quite literally) hundreds of forum posts, and a few articles, on how to safely strip paint from your plastic miniatures.

Good luck.

Why is it that only those who have never fought in a battle are so eager to be in one?
