Also, it wont strip primer from plastic completely, and it might leave the models slightly tarnished. However, once you primer them, they will look good as new.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1780197.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1780197.page GMT Does Simple Green for Stripping Plastic Models Need to be Diluted? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1781090.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1781090.page GMT Does Simple Green for Stripping Plastic Models Need to be Diluted? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1781094.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1781094.page GMT Does Simple Green for Stripping Plastic Models Need to be Diluted? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1781107.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1781107.page GMT Does Simple Green for Stripping Plastic Models Need to be Diluted?

so what would happen if you used the concentrated without dilution?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1781213.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1781213.page GMT Does Simple Green for Stripping Plastic Models Need to be Diluted?

Also, is letting them soak for a day the best solution, or is like 15 hours fine?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1781385.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1781385.page GMT Does Simple Green for Stripping Plastic Models Need to be Diluted?

DexterKong wrote:I recently had a bunch of metal models soaking in simple green for about a week. When they came out, they had a gray tint to them, almost as if they had been primed with Codex Gray. The surfaces aren't damaged or pitted or anything, so it isn't rust or corrosion, it's just a very weird surface color change that happened. Has anyone else experienced this? Any idea what causes it?

I've had a similar experience with the old chaos terminator lord. It's probably a chemical reaction between agents in the pewter and the Simple Green.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1784206.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1784206.page GMT Does Simple Green for Stripping Plastic Models Need to be Diluted?
for metal minis, I usually let them sit for 5+ days. the metal does tarnish to a darker color, but the detail is perfectly fine. A new spray of primer and you'd never know it was previously mispainted!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1784231.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1784231.page GMT Re:Does Simple Green for Stripping Plastic Models Need to be Diluted? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1784526.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/1784526.page GMT Does Simple Green for Stripping Plastic Models Need to be Diluted?

At least overnight. A longer soak won't hurt and will actually help with the stubborn spots.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/6394762.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/6394762.page GMT Does Simple Green for Stripping Plastic Models Need to be Diluted?
Also, try doing a search on "simple green" or "stripping" for more detailed info....this topic is a common one.

best of luck!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/6394884.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/307681/6394884.page GMT
