yes indeed Martin I ca'nt imagine the time you had scraping chrome off spokes. I did the brake fluid test it took overnight and worked although not as cleanly as the bleach
Trey, when you say the bleach took a while - how long are we talkin? I screwed up some gloss spray paint on some car wheels and I'm hoping the bleach will do the trick...
Stuart, i did some more last night with the bleech, we are talking really heavy chrome on an old Protar kit here that im doing. It took around an hour and a half for it to completely strip it off. Regards Martin
lol Stuart, no defo not that long bud, you may even find its quicker than i said, as i say the bits ive been doing have VERY heavy chrome on them, some of the stuff ive done is less so and only took around 20 mins, so keep checking as you go along....ive not had any problems with harm to the plastic leaving it for several hours though so dont worry about leaving it to carry on with other stuff.
Well my halfords acrylic gloss black resisted the bleach - it dissolved the brush bristles i left in there but not the paint. So I tried cellulose and it attacked the plastic.... Darn!!
So now I'm looking for replacement Jaguar XJ220 wheels!!

PS Cyrano, the acetone didn't affect the black paint either, it must be hard as diamonds this stuff!!
John does sell 'Model Strip" which is designed to strip paint off models, just apply it and leave it sealed in a bag for 24 hours and there ya go. I do have a tub but not used it yet.
