| Repaint Lexan Bodies?
Hey guys, is it possible to repaint lexan bodies? Is there anything i can use to strip the paint on the a small section of the body if not the whole thing? The reason i ask is because i accidentally got some paint on the windshield and it is really annoying me. lol Thanks for the help! |

I have heard that auto brake fluid, r/c nitro fuel, or easyoff oven cleaner, followed by a little scrubbing, will take the paint off. Sometimes it works well, sometimes its a real pain, depending on the paint used and other factors. However, all methods that I have heard of will leave the lexan slightly cloudy which is no big deal if it is going to be repainted. For a windshield which was intended to be clear this could maybe make it look worse.
