Rebuilding Model

so i can just leave it in the freezer and the parts will drop out?

Put it into warm water [Not boiling] and then put 'em on the freezer.
Once they are very cold,frozen even,you can try to pull the joints apart.

When i'm going to pull two CA glued pieces,I put a not so sharp hobby knife between the joints and start to crack it carefully until the pieces are apart.

About taking the paint off,you can try stripping your model and parts in:
Isoprophyl Alcohol 50%+ (90% is best)
DOT 3 Brake Fluid [Not 100% safe]
Castrol Super Clean [CSC],Purple power,Simple Green,or any other degreaser of that kind.
The last three mentioned above are very famous in stripping models,since they do their job well.

But be careful with all of those that I mentioned,because they are VERY dangerous to skin and smelling them may let you dizzy or even nauseous [Brake fluid does it to me! ]

Hope it helps!

and btw, assuming i want to spray the underneath of my car black, the cement does not stick with the presence of paint. how do i overcome this?

When I want to remove parts that I super glued together I dip a brush in paint thinner and brush over the parts. Once its been wet in the thinner for about 2 minutes it start to pull the pieces apart.
