Stripping Zero Paints (and decals)

I've made a right pigs ear of my Belkits Fiesta. I've painted it with Zero paints, which as always went on perfectly, but I was appyling the Rossi Monza decals where it all went wrong.

I've obviously still got the kit decals which I could now use instead, but what is the best way of stripping the Zero paint and decals?

Submerge in isopropyl, a few hours should do it, I would have said half gour but a few hours should/will do the job.get toothbrush, then scrub it and watch the paint and decals come off.

gavlaar84 - be sure and use the isopropyl alcohol that is 90% or greater - 70% isopropyl ETOH will take forever

Hope this all helps you -
