The sassy protocol droid, R-3PO!

I'll try a bit of caustic soda - the only degreaser I have in the garage is a splash left in a 5 litre container of 'jebsol' (trichloroethylene) which is seriously powerful stuff and I think it would destroy the kit parts - it was seriously good at degreasing my old '52 Norton primary chain case though.

Trich degreaser is now a banned substance because if it's harmful effects in the environment, in all probability the stuff I have will have flashed off a few years ago (had it for lots of years). Caustic soda is used for descaling kettles and that will easily lift the glaze coat too - thanks for the advice!  Now I just have to finish all the projects I have started before attempting this one lol!
