A word of caution!!!
When I was about 14 (or so), I had a bottle of Testors Red Enamel that had decided to seal itself shut. The fact that I never used to clean the threads off probably had nothing to do with it. Anyway, I grab a pair of my Dad's pliers and decide to have a go.
As I applied all the pressure I could, the pliers abruptly turned, and I knew - I just knew - that there should NOT have been the crack of breaking glass when the lid came off!
Pulling the pliers away - still holding the Testors lid with four, 1/8" long glass shards that used to be the bottle top - I noticed that there was a slightly thinner red substance beginning to float in the now wide open paint bottle. This was of course, my blood.
Let me tell you this, not only does water NOT remove enamel paint from an open wound, it actually helps the paint set up. I can also tell you that paint thinner in an open wound hurts like...well...like...a LOT!!!
To this day I have a very pretty 1 1/2" scar running from my index finger knuckle back the top of my left palm.
Please...be careful out there!
Enjoy your modeling...
