little-cars Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 AK have an acrylic paint remover, have some in stock, but haven't had a chance to use it. I wonder if anyone has tried this yet ?? Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomBigStu Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 If you uk based buy some fairy power spray, poor in into a Tupperware box, and bath the model for a few days, should then stripe bak to primer or even plastic with a few mins of scrubbing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caution Wake Turbulence Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Seconded. Can't comment on Vallejo, but Fairy Power Spray stripped off Tamiya acrylic in minutes - I just put the part in a zip-lock bag and sprayed a bit in. Left the (Tamiya) primer untouched. Great stuff!

A340MAINIA Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 Will be going to buy some tomorrow 😊. It's a shame that Tamiya or another manufacturer haven't made their own paint/varnish remover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Oven cleaner will also do the trick. Does not effect on plastic but can attack any exposed putty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little-cars Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Just a note: AK interactive now do their own brand paint remover. http://www.modellingtools.co.uk/ak---paint-stripper-12596-p.asp Thanks, Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
