paint removal

Whats the best way to remove the paint off a Bit?

[hogjowlz]

spending 6 bucks on another body kit.

if you are that stubborn you can buy paint thinner and rags for about the same price. your car will not look very well tho.

Is there any other way to remove the paint? Cuz im tryin to remove the paint off a Trueno, and spray it a different color.

try finger nail polish remover DONT use alot at 1 time tho.

try Easy Off Oven Cleaner (tm)
works great and won't ruin the body.

I heard you can leave it in a bucket of pinesol over night.

Pine-Sol works! if you use nail polish remover you have to use NON-ACETONE otherwise you car will get cloudy looking instead of clear.

Do not use nail polish remover! It's too powerful! It melted my Bensu clone body.. (although it might have melted because it was a bensu!)

For both my Shenqiwei clones I used a cup of Pine-Sol and left the body inside the pinesol for a few hours (4-5).

The paint became really soft and washed off for the most part, I took a soft tooth brush and also lightly scrubbed the parts that didn't get covered w/ pine sol enough.

But it worked great and the body still felt hard after the 5 hour bath. (Then again I do believe Shenqiwei bodies are much thicker/harder than other clones/bits.)

Only downside is the pine-sol stink, you'll need to soap your car really well so it doesn't smell funky.

Does it HAVE to be Pine-sol? or can it be any other brands?

i've tried removing the paint a lot too, whats the point? the paint that comes with a body is sooo thin it wont make a difference i've found thats it's better to just paint over it
