Unpainting a painted body?
#1
Is there anything that you can use to take the paint off the inside of a body without leaving it all cloudy? I have a CP2.0 that's in decent shape but I don't like the paint anymore.

Green just isn't my color.:p:

Test paint stripper on a scrap piece of plastic to see if it messes it up.....

RcDad mentioned brake fluid once. Try fuel?

rubbing alcohol will work, but if there are any cuts made they will show up, and most likely it will be pretty cloudy

Naa, goo gone leaves it cloudy (tried it before lol) and I want it to be clear to repaint it.

Brake fliud will definately remove paint...but getting the brake fluid cleaned off completely in order to get the new paint to stick may be an issue.
