CSC works very little on Tamiya paints. It works very well for stripping Testors and also stripping chrome parts.
You'll need alcohol or brake fluid to strip Tamiya in a timely fashion.
For stripping Testors I usually give it a day, pull it out and hit the model with the back side of a sponge. Most of the paint should come right off.
Chrome parts will strip totally, without needing to scrub, in less than 4 hours.

i just found out using DOT 3 brake fluid in the cold doesn't work as well.....it gets quite viscus. but in warmer temperatures it should be off in 2 or 3 hours or less, or it will be dissolved enough that you can just wipe it off.
take note, when i tried to strip something that was puttied the putty disolved. not sure if this is your case but i just wanted to add that.

CSC was pretty slow for me. I found that DOT3 is the best by far. DOT 3 worked better for me than Isopropyl Alcohol also
