Csc

where can I get it? will it take off like 6 coats. I have a celica I just bought that was molded in red and for some reason the primer didnt cover it, the red came threwafter 2 coats of primer. then I sprayed it with gloss white and it still show threw the whole car looks pink. also how do I use it, just pour it in a bowl dump the body in and let it sit for awhile. Ive never used it before. I have put so many coats on Ive lost the panel lines. do u think I can recover it? last time I tried to strip I body I used thinner and put the body in a bowl of it, the whole car dissappered in like a couple of hours. it was a supra I was pissed.

You can get CSC(degreaser) at Walmart, and it will strip 6 coats of paint.....BUT, did you spray it with Tamiya lacquer spray?
If you used Tamiya spray, you will have to use brake fluid to remove the paint, CSC won't do anything to it.....and you may have to leave the model in longer.

BTW, don't forget to wear rubber gloves when working with CSC, it not only dissolves grease and paint, but skin too....

Check the FAQ; I wrote a step-by-step for working with CSC, and it's in there somewhere...

okie dokie thanks ill check that out forgot about the faq

another question, it wot eat into the body if i forgot it, not that i would but just wondering?

In my experience, full-strength CSC will not harm styrene plastic, colored or clear, even when left in contact for 30+ days. :)

ok good

Where? I click on FAQ and then where do I go?

scroll down to the paint section I think then click on "removing paint" or "what is CSC?" it will take u directly to the thread about it.

I do not see any "Paint" section all I got is "User Maintanence", "General Board Usage", and "Posting Messages". AM I looking in the wrong place?

Nevermind, I found it.
