Does oven cleaner dissolve putty?

Just wondering, I need to repaint a model which has received a lot of putty work (both basic Tamiya and Milliput) and I was wondering: if I put it in oven cleaner, will it not only dissolve the paint but also dissolve the putty?
Does anybody have any experience with this?

Best way to do it is sand the paint down.

It is the underside of the car, so sanding is nearly impossible. I thought oven cleaner would work nicely, I just don't feel like puttying and sanding again :)

Yes, oven cleaner generally will dissolve putty along with paint.

What type of paint is it? If it's acrylic you might get away w/an alcohol bath or window cleaner; that shouldn't affect the putty or plastic.

If it's Tamiya TS it might come off w/alcohol (99% isopropyl rubbing alcohol) w/o affecting the putty.

What's harder, sanding what you have or stripping and re-puttying?

I just finished a similar project. I used 99% isopropyl rubbing alcohol and the putty (Tamiya 2-mix-to-1 type) turned out "OK". It still ate into where the putty is thin (like edges) but nothing major. The amount of work was similar to preparing a resin kit.

how about brake fluid?

I know csc eats tamiya basic grey putty and im pretty sure it ate millliput for me once too.

how about brake fluid?

Brake fluid dissolves putty.
