Safely remove old paint from plastic.
I have a real, original GM flapper valve assembly for 69 ZL2 hood.
I have owned this part since 1983 when I traded for it. Very good condition. The steel frame is easy to clean up. Sand blast cabinet.
However, the original "M" embossed Monsanto flapper is covered in orange and white paint. Yes, it came off a pace car that someone painted without removing the flapper assy.
Most of the paint will peel off with a thumbnail, but frankly, I don't want to spend three hours cleaning it.
Anything I can soak it it that will not hurt the plastic? I am guessing it is abs, but who knows.
