Hey guys, I need to strip some MTL 50' rib side boxcars and a few GP35s, what is best way to do this? Thanks.
Eddie, I used Pine Soll on a GP35, but I had to soak it overnight. With 91% alcohol is much faster. I say within 15 minutes, then I soak it a little longer on tougher areas.
I used ELO with great quick results, but I also have some Camillion Gel that I found at the WGH show to try out.
Eddie, if you mess anything up, let me know and I'll see what I can do to help out. I've used Brake Fluid with good results as well, but I think the Alcohol or ELO is your best choice. Cheers Joe MTL
Eddie, I like to use the 91% alcohol as well. After about 15 minutes, most of the paint is gone. Pad printed areas take a bit longer, but can be sped up a bit by using a toothbrush. But, if you give it an hour or so, pretty much everything wipes right off. Dan S.
I have used a product called Chameleon on MTL cars and loco shells. It works well. I buy it at my local hobby shop. John
