Default FRENCH GUY, THANX FOR THE DRINK

Hey french guy,


Thanx for the tip on removing paint with plain alcohol. I tested 2 players left in the alk for 24 hours. When you look at them in the cup it looks like nothing is happening. When i took them out, the paint wiped off so easily with a napkin. I WILL GET A OLD TOOTH BRUSH FOR THE NEXT BATCH. You were 100% percent right. The alcohol did not ruin the plastic one bit. Now i did this with ff.net figures. Will i get the same results with figures made from a different plastic ? This is pretty cool. No mess whatsoever. No harmful chemicals to worry about. Im sure like myself, some coaches began projects and know theyare not going to complete them. So instead of tanking those figures, this gives them a new start. I was shocked how easy the paint came off. How did you learn of using alcohol ?


Thanx
mantaraydre

Hi Dre,

Be carefull if you change your figure brand. Verify it often if you dip it in alcohol, to see if anything bad happens. I cannot assure you that it will work with every figure brand you'll put in alcohol. You 'll have to experiment, don't hesitate to post the results so it can be used by anyone here


I learned that tip making slot cars modeling
