well after reading about various concoctions to strip paint i thought i'd try something a little more obvious.
Wilkinsons Paint and Varnish Stripper.
I bought a red arrows hawk cheap from ebay but hadnt noticed in the description than the fuselage had already been painted, painted with Humbrol enamel.
I made sure it wouldnt affect the plastic by trying it out on an old wreck i had, it cut through the coat of Klear, the decals and the acrylic paint right back to the plastic after just 30 minutes soak time.
Would it work as well on enamel?
This is before application
The i pasted the kit with the stripper as advised on the bottle
30 minutes later after a quick wipe over with some kitchen roll
This Bottle cost me £5-50 from Wilkinsons and should last a long time.
I'd say it was a roaring success
I'll see what its like on an old clear canopy tomorrow.
