Stripping Paint

So I thought I'd share how I strip paint off of metal models.

I like a lot of the older OOP metal models and prefer the weight of them to resin (although after a few new goes with the GW Finecast stuff I'm starting to like it a lot).

Tools needed -
Old Toothbrush
A container without a lid!
Acetone Free nail varnish remover.

First I pour the nail varnish remover into a container. I then put the models I want to strip into the solution.

After a few seconds you can usually see some of the paint 'bubbling'. I leave this for 10-15 minutes.

After this I come back and using the toothbrush I rub it along the model under running water. This takes the layers of paint off. Sometimes the model/parts need to take another soak in the solution.

Once done you should come out with an almost new model!
