Re: Customizing Q&A Thread
I looked, but I didn't find any there, unless I was looking in the wrong section (checked the Metrotown ones, anyways) ... Is there a specific Zellers or Toys R Us that you KNOW has some?

Re: Customizing Q&A Thread
Any decent hobby shop should carry it, should be easy to find in Van.
Don't buy the stuff in Zellers, TRU, Wal-Mart.

Re: Customizing Q&A Thread
Alrighty, Im trying to remove paint with 99% Isopropyl Alcohol, the parts have been sitting in a tub of Isopropyl Alcohol for almost 24hrs, and its not coming off.  Any other ways of removing paint. (no counting sanding)

Re: Customizing Q&A Thread
Not to sound insulting but you are scrubbing them with an old toothbrush or q-tips correct? I know a lot of customizers use nail polish remover to take paint off. You just have to be careful not to let it soak as it can make the plastic soft.

I was scrubbing the parts about every 2 hours and I let them sit over night when I went to bed. I scrubbed them about an hour ago and nothing is happening

Re: Customizing Q&A Thread
Alright, well, one follow up question, they are painted parts right? They aren't just molded in that colour of plastic?
Which parts are they?

Re: Customizing Q&A Thread
i had that problem too with my dreadwind custom, it took 24 hours and a whole lot of scrubbing (hard scrubbing too) some of the paint i just ended up painting over, the black just peeled right off after like 3 hours, but the red was something else

Im trying to remove paint on RID Grimlock's face, and some paint on a few Megamorph Hulk bits. Im going to try the nail polish remover trick, how long should they sit for?
