I've painted a part with Model Master Acrylic. Several coats later, I'm getting loss of detail (you really don't want to know why I something so stupid in the first place). I'd like to strip the acrylic and start over again. The part in question is the drivers's control panel for a 1/35 th scale Tiger I. Anyone know a method for this besides sandblasting (ugh)?
If you've got the part removed from the model you can dip it in Windex. That'll take the acrylic right off!
On the bench: AFV Club M730A1 Chaparral
On deck: Tamiya Marder 1A2
In the hole: Who knows what's next!
Thanks for the reply. It must take awhile because I've been soaking in Windex for about an hour with no result. Let's see what happens after an overnight soak.:)
You sure it's acrylic? Normally it practically falls off after just a few seconds
Pretty sure. I only use acrylic. I just went to check and be sure before answering. Perhaps it's because it has 3 coats.
Quite possibly. Let it sit overnight then. Can't hurt.

Nothing brings off acrylics like said item. Rubbing or Methylated(sp?) Spirits be my weapon of choice.
Windex will remove MM Acryl but it takes a while for some reason. Tamiya will come off almost instantly with Windex.
Ironically, I just pulled some old bombs out of a Windex bath about 10 minute before I wrote this. They had both Tamiya and MM Acryl on them. The Tamiya came right off and the MM Acryl needed some help with a toothbrush.

I prefer Simple Green, but it could take some time....

Not with my experiences with Acryl.
