I need a way to quickly strip spray paint off a model without damaging the plastic. It's the last model I need to finish for WGC, and overspray made the faces look like bubbles. Is there a one day stripping method? I have today and tomorrow to get it cleaned up and resprayed before I have to go back to work next week and I still have basing to do on a bunch of models.
A little nail polish remover on a Qtip. Rub it over the face area until clean.
If you wanna clean the whole model... a fast bath in said remover, or brake fluid tends to work as well.
simple green for the plastics.
Simple Green, soak overnight. In the morning, rinse and scrub with an old toothbrush.
Thanks for the advice. Soaking now. Guess I'll work on bases tonight.
You could try the toothbrush after a 20 min soak.
Just make sure everything is cleanly washes and dried before you put more paint on.
It's been so long since I stripped a model I forgot about simple green. :p
