| To much paint
Got a used tamiya f350 body and damn they put a crap load of paint on it, horrible job they did, parts chipping off body lines all messed up cuz or it, it's taken forever to sand this body down, any easier ways to get most the paint off quicker?

dot 3 brake fluid works, but dot 4 works even better. its worth the trip to the store because you wont have to sand it forever

Don't let it soak to long or it will make the plastic soft and can cause the color to actually bleed into the body. --Dan |

Do I just use a rag to rub it and then wash off then repeat ?

I would do that ^^ but dont leave it on long as it will start to eat the plastic. Be sure to give it a quick sanding afterwards, or something to remove the oil based brake fluid
