Hey guys Pinesol isn't so user friendly. It will soften the plastic and if you touch it or scrub with too hard of a brush you will leave marks in the plastic. Once it removes the paint and the plastic drys and rehardens it's okay to handle. I had to learn this the hard way and so did my Skyline.

Pine Sol, sounds kinda scary since it will leave that scent on the shell; but no problem, all I need to do later is run some exhaust fumes onto it so it will smell like a car

Anyone else besides johnrtse use pinesol??? or is there an alternative paint stripper??? Must absorb as much knowledge as possible before I start to repaint the R32, 34 and 86.

Use the Pine-Sol straight from the bottle, with no mixing.

And use REGULAR Pine-Sol, lemon or regular scent. NOT the anti-bacterial- it doesn't work at all.

I found that while stripping a few clone bodies I have, that Pine-Sol will take off one or two colors, but leave other colors.
Soaking in Rubbing Alcohol took off any remaining paint (acrylic-based I assume).

Must be that they used different types of paints when they produced the cars.

And I do recommend using gloves - I don't always I admit

hey johnrtse check my pic and tell me if thats the right kinda pine sol it doesnt say anti-bacterial but it says advanced grease formula http://tinyrc.com/forums/attachment.php?postid=67472

pacman · #26 02-06-2003, 06:23 PM

btw superimport2ner how long did u leave that in for, looks like either too long or not long enough. is that the paint or plastic thats all bumpy?

johnrtse · #27 02-06-2003, 08:58 PM

I couldn't see the pic for some reason pac, but it should work as long as it isn't "anti-bacterial".

AND, As I said earlier in this topic;

"I always suggest testing on a small part first."

I have stripped 5 cars with Pinesol, only 1 was screwed. Coinceidence I didn't use gloves? You decide.

I let one stay in for 2 days, wore gloves, worked good.

pacman · #29 02-06-2003, 11:39 PM

so if u handled it with bare hands before u put it in to strip it doesnt work good? or handling it after stripping and painting doesnt work?

btw i had my skyline in there for about 4 hours now and it doesnt seem to have done anything, how long should it take?

u guys should make a write up on this and it should be put up on sticky.

You can touch it before, Once it hits that Pinesol i wouldn't touch it. And the paint just dosen't "fall" off. After about 4 or 5 hours take a tooth bruch and lightly brush off the paint.
