Re: Cleaning plastics
that is interesting, I will have to give it a try .I have been using brake fluid on the planes ,but some types of paint wont lift with brake fluid . have you tried your stuff on the more ABS looking plastic on the cox planes there seems to be different plastics that cox used .some of the plastics seem to be more sensitive then others to chemicals .Roger
