does paint stripper go off?

<< < (2/2)

Disco Matt:
Nitromors doesn't seem to go off. I've got a tin here that dates back a few years and will still take paint off.

What I have found is that some paint is surprisingly resistant to the stuff. An old diecast model train I was restoring required two or three applications to remove all of the original paint!

carbore:
Modern paint stripper is a bit rubbish as the H&S types dont like selling anythink you cant drink or let dolphins swim in.

I was told by someone that mixing casutic soda with wallpaper paste was a good alternative (have not tried that, be careful if you do)

william127:
went in the garage for something else today and looked at the door, and some bits of paint that i applied the strripper to just fell off with a quick scrape so i will try the overnight with bin bags method tommorow, applying the stuff really thickly.

incidentaly any opinion on colour: i really like the yellow 110 truck cab on page 50 of junes landrover, anyone know if thats an offical landrover colour or what it is? think it looks good on a flatbed/truckcab, which is what mine is. lots of colours dont suit flatbeds/truck cabs because of the small amount of body work, i think you need a bold colour, in my opinion :)
