      Gary,
      As Dave said washing up liquid and warm water, followed by a run through with thinners to get rid of the moisture.

          It is. Not sure why that would be but the seller has been changing his posting but it's very odd.

              Oddly it looks the same ad as the other one but a different seller. But then again who cares as long as it arrives at that price

                  Hi Andy,
                  I've paid through PAYPAL on a visa card so I'm insured, also ebay feedback is useless I've bought alot of stuff through FOG models and there have been numerous negative feedback comments yet I have never had an issue along with numerous other sellers.
                  regards Jim

                    The guy I bought from, chinese based seller, was way worse as well. But paid via PayPal so like Jim I am pretected. Curiously he has put the comments themselves into private mode so all you can see is the actual numbers. But we'll see.
                    I wonder if they are in effect the same seller. But as long as it arrives I'm fine or a refund. But I note all Jim's sellers IPA sales were negative feedback with "scam" being mentioned. If they don't send the goods the PayPal refund if the seller doesn't so not sure what the issue would be apart from buyer being cheesed off

                      Just contacted ebay and told them my seller had made his feedback private which according to their rules means he can't sell anything. They said this was a concern but from their end the deal has gone through OK and he has sold OK recently. But they would look into his status and they agreed with my interpretation of the rules. They restated that any isses and I would get an ebay refund as per the guarantee.
                      All thats great but it's only £11 and I'd rather have the IPA. But lets see what happens on the 20th when I'm supposed to get it. Remember when ebay was a person to person selling a buying place and was fun ? It's mostly traders now which is a shame from that perspective. But at least ebay have upped their game reference customer service

                        He's never sold anything like this before, and all feedback relating to IPA is marked scam. Useless? Yeah, right.

                          Firstly it's my money my risk, balanced against 3 of the 4 negatives are from the same buyer and the 4th is very similar

                            I take most feedback, anywahere with a pinch of salt especially the negative product ones. Often they are because the product has been used incorrectly. But it's a judgment call. As Jim says it's often a balance. Some people have a grudge and make life painful for sellers....and buyers sometimes. Thing is PayPal and ebay have decent refund processes now. So in a way nothing ventured.......

                              Pro-Color Airbrush Cleaner by Harder & Steenbeck

                              I have been using this for about 2 years. Best yet & not expensive.
                              Used to use Vallejo but this stuff beats it hands down.

                              Even beats up varnish.
