Brake fluid question...stripping paint

I just dumped my 350Z into a container of DOT-3 brake fluid. I rubbed my finger on the surface, and i already saw the paint come of onto my hand. Stuff works great. But, here is the question: How long should i leave it in the container for? Thanks.

BTW, did you go vote in the photoshop comp yet? If you havn't SHAME ON YOU!

i leave it in for a couple hours. sometimes i just leave it over night.

i wish i knew about the photoshop comp, i would've entered it.:(

shit u can use brake fluid to strip paint of model cars??
didn't know that ... i thought u should use Castrol Super Clean
...hehehehe time to use my Endless Brake fluid than!!:D

How long should you leave it in there? The longer the better. Just to get the best results I leave it in there from about 4 days to a week, in the meantime, I start on another car.

And don't use any brake fluid above dot-3, such as racing brake fluid, first of all, it's expensive, and it'll ruin the plastic.

And just in case you're wondering, it doesnt ruin windshields. ;) have fun
