I didn't even know I had it until I looked in the cabinet under the sink. How long should I leave a model in the CSC? What type of container should I keep it in? I may finally be able to work on my Ferrari F50 again. I painted it yellow at first because I have the Tamiya Yellow version, but i changed my mind and decided it should be red. Oh man I am a rebel.:bandit:

I keep mine in its own jug.
I soak my parts for a couple hours. You can always open it and see if the paint is coming loose yet; if not, leave it longer... :D

Thanks for the link.
Well I have to say that I am impressed with the CSC. It took the paint right off my F50. It was amazing.

Everything would have turned out perfect if it wasn't for my stupidity. After I stripped the paint I had the pieces soak in soapy water for a day. The next day I decided to rinse them off. I figured it would be easier just to use the sink. I bet some of you know where this is going. While I was holding on to the rear view mirror (oh that poor little innocent piece) I dropped it and watched it swim away down the drain. I was too careless and didn't take the proper precautions. Damn it all.:mad: Who needs mirrors anyways? When you are going 200 mph the only way you should be looking is ahead of you.

Update:
I managed to get the piece out of the sink. All is well again.
