Default Re: Safely remove old paint from plastic.

I had some of my interior underdash plastics in my 70GTX soda [powder] blasted with great effect. The plastics were painted in 2pak and all was removed without damaging the grain in any way. As Jason said, the guy used lower pressure, it took all of 20 mins. The plastics are not repop'd in FK5 Orange.I was more than a little paranoid about using caustic or oven products. With the soda blast they turned out really nice, good as new- literally! Dash pad,arm rests and console next!..Yes they painted all the orig FK5 pieces to "freshen-up" the interior.. DOH!!

cheers Dave

Oh me, oh my!


Reinstalled after blasting= noice!
