Re: Removing paint

Brake Fluid is easy way to remove paint but it's dangerous for your skin if you contact it directly, You must use handglove. Nail Paint Remover or Acetone is more safety and more convenience because you can contact it directly. But it can remove only enamel paint. If you want to remove other type colors (Acrylic,Lacquer,etc.) You should use Brake Fluid or sanding paper.
