Has anyone tried to strip the paint off one of there shells? What did you use? Kato I used Rubbing alcohol and it worked . Atlas the undec shells are easy to find so never did one. Just wondering before I try it. Thanks Rick
JDG, I routinely disassemble FVM diesels and have yet to find glue...perhaps you're thinking of IMRC or Athearn? When I took the large "SANTA FE" off a GP60 shell (Needed to replace it with "BNSF" for accuracy.) I used the 97% alcohol with success. If you're dealing with one of the GEVOs, Rick, be aware FVM uses a tricky little slide move about front-mid shell. Other than that you should have no problems.
I did a lot of modifications and repaint from boxcars to locos. I use Scalecoat II its a plastic safe paint remover and works very well on anything plastic.
Thanks guys. Sorry I thought I had posted it was a GP-60M. Randy thanks on the Shapeway heads up also. I know the Gp-60M had a undec, but most places are sold out ,I snoozed. Rick
