3 years later i'm looking for a new car so i figured it was time to finaly make the litle yellow monster in to a proper replica of my car

I took it appart stripped the paint and repainted it

Very cool!

I saw the video on youtube aswell. The Zero stripper seems to work great. I've tried stripping a diecast once using a similar product, but the paint was pretty much unaffected. Maybe i should try some of the Zero stuff, thanks for showing how it works in your video.
