Thanks to testor again to scrap my Supra Body... will never buy testor spraycan again....

So how to get rid of this paint and primer ? I don't have Castrol Super clean, so I need help ? Do I need to let it try then sand it for 18 hours in a row or there is an other solution (other than take the body and trow it away)
Testor Gray primer (sux big time)
Model master (testor) Pure White


:flamer: TESTOR:apuke:

dry or fresh paint ?

right now it's fresh (just scrap the body 10 minute ago) do I need to wait a couple of hour to let it dry ?

:silly2: and i think i should add: use rubber glovves and a mask or respirtor, that easy off is a killer, also i will take off all of the paint but probably not all of the primer:silly2:
