Well, here we are home during the Nor-Easter and wondering what I can do while the water rises. I have been trying to figure out a way to remove all the black spraybomb overspray that is on the orginal honeycomb grills for the T/A. So I ended up doing a little websurfing of the term "plastic paint stripping" and wound up finding a model car website where they compared a variety of different techniques for removing paint from plastic models. We have all heard of the old "Easy Off" oven cleaner being used for paint stripping but the fumes are noxious and the results are very slow and require scrubbing which damages the plastic. Their new favorite plastic paint stripping technique now employs the super-degreaser formerly known as "Castrol Super Clean". I guess they sold the formula off because it's now just called "Super Clean." Well, anyway here is the before photo of one of the grills all covered in black spray paint:
Here's the top:
