Harshman II padakr: Harshman II: Get METHYL ETHYL KETONE (MEK)... It has the strongest stripping power of any solvent but at the same time, it will not damage plastic. Its even better than thinner. I thought that was what the plastic solvent cement was made of, and that would definitely damage the plastic. Tested and proven. I work in a lab.

So how is it different from the MEK in the standard plastic cement? Is it a question of strength? I've read other posts suggesting using MEK in different strengths as a less expensive alternative to brand name modeling "cement".

from what ive seen acrylic thinner, at least tamiya, doesnt attack plastic you could try that. I might be wrong so dont quote me and try on a scrap piece of plastic first
Super Clean degreaser is the best I have found followed by Easy-Off oven cleaner in the yellow can.
This link tested some paint strippers: http://www.bonediggers.com/1-3/strip/strip.html
Simply Green works well for enamels. Do not know about acrylics. It may take longer than oven cleaner, but I am not afraid of getting it on my hands.
Either of the two I already mentioned work very well for acrylics.
yes i need something to take off Acrylic paint.
Can anyone confirm what is best to use to strip Acrylics?
Also have used Pollyscale EZ Lift-off (expensive) and ordinary brake fluid (cheaper). I used these on enamals but not sure what to use for acrylics....
