How to Clean Old paint in spray jars
Hey guys - I have to get back into this hobby, as I have about 10 cars/planes that are ready for paint....
Problem is - all my paint jars are NASTY!!! Some have dried up paint in the bottom, others with half dried paint, etc. Anyways - is there any way to clean them? Thinner doesn't do anything, and I don't want to have to buy new ones at $3/each. Any heavy duty stuff I can use? Merc . |

Be careful with some break fluids around kits. If you are wondering why, check out my posts [4th Last and 7th Last posts in the thread] Break Fluid Wrecks Kit EDIT: Avoid brake cleaners as well, they are harsh!

I got's LOTS of brake fluid - off to give that a try!
I did see your post Hummer - that woulda pissed me off bad if I wrecked a kit like that ! Anyways - thanks for the tips (I'd try the other tips out, but I don't have that stuff), and soon, I should be spraying a F150 Lightning . |
