Thanks, Mark. It simply is getting too much paint on it anyway. IF this stuff works as advertised it should be a breeze.

I have ordered some Stripwell QCS Model Safe finish remover. I think the beast will be going back to bare plastic and a re-do. There are enough flaws that need to be touched up it will be easier to start over. Eager to see how this stuff works.
Funny you mentioned Stripwell QCS. I just watched a youtube video review not too long ago. For those unfamiliar with this product, here's the video link:

It's supposedly can remove chrome off sprues too.

That ain’t happening. I spend enough on groceries, gas and this hobby.

If you spend a lil' more grocery money on beans and cabbage (
pretty cheap eatin'!), you'll find an answer to your gas problems as well Lyle. And more money to lay out for the hobby too, eh?

True, but then I can't stand to be in the same room with me.
