Re: easy off? stripping P2K cars
arved_grass
I believe the "active ingredient" in brake fluid is alcohol. ~90% alcohol is my first pick. Just last weekend, I stripped an old Mantua gondola in 91% alcohol. I have yet to see a Lifelike/P2K or P1K model that didn't strip clean in 91% alcohol (that's what the local Walmart and Walgreen sell). 70% is ineffective. Be sure to get the full strength stuff.

Yes. http://www.easyoff.us/ I use oven cleaner as a stripper of last resort to deal with particularly stubborn paint. "Any other experience stripping P2K cars?" 90% isopropyl alcohol does the trick. I stay away from brake fluid for newer production models and use it only on legacy models such as Athearn Blue Box, MDC, etc. Ben Hom #yiv8587307830 #yiv8587307830 -- #yiv8587307830ygrp-mkp {
