    Stripping paint on your models.

    For stripping paintwork on plastic etc a good tip is to use Brake fluid,soak the parts/model in the fluid until the paint starts to lift,best to do a test piece first before committing to your model,wear latex gloves and avoid skin contact.An old oven deep pan is ideal as a recepticle to place the model during the strip off process.Neutralise the fluid by cleaning with soapy water.

    With thanks to Nigel,Bunkerbarge and others for outlining this useful technique.
