You get it at some Walmarts and Autozone for sure. This stuff will murder paint jobs and plastic AND metal with ease. And WAY better then simple green. Its under $10 and lasts just about for forever. All you have to do is wear rubber gloves when handling the liquid as it likes flesh. But doesnt soften or damage plastic/metal. Trust me this stuff is the best for stripping]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/292836/1540962.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/292836/1540962.page GMT Removing paint off plastic mini's http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/292836/1541016.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/292836/1541016.page GMT Re:Removing paint off plastic mini's http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/292836/1541025.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/292836/1541025.page GMT Removing paint off plastic mini's ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/292836/1541040.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/292836/1541040.page GMT Re:Removing paint off plastic mini's

My painting was pretty bad when I started so I've got 94 mostly plastic space marines, and a bunch of other stuff that will need a do-over. My kids are itching to get these painted up in new colors.

Apparently I should of typed my post out in bold and in a much larger font size


No super clean doesnt hurt plastic/metal minis at all. Ive never tried it on resin, so for that I cant tell you. The only thing is, is when you use super clean, wear rubber gloves, otherwise your skin will get a nice chemical burn.

is there some liquid on this entire planet that is

a) affordable

b) strips of the glue

and

c) does not screw up plastic models?



It is almost impossible to get super clean oder simple green in germany without horrendous shipping cost - any idea for a substitute?
I already tried mellerud and it works mediocre...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/292836/1583433.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/292836/1583433.page GMT Removing paint off plastic mini's http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/292836/1583889.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/292836/1583889.page GMT Removing paint off plastic mini's
Simple green is better for the environment IF you can get hold of it.

Save the planet, hug a tree.

TIPS: If you have your mini's in a bucket with whatever chemical, give the stuff a quick mix once or twice a day. This can speed up the process of stripping.

Warmer temperature will speed up the process of stripping. If you have a warm spot in the house\garage then consider soaking them there. 30'C will strip WAY quicker then 10'C.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/292836/1583892.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/292836/1583892.page GMT
