Yup, the stuff is ideal for the job.

I leave the shell in the stuff for 1 week and it is stripped down to the plastic. I find that Castrol is the best.

Be careful, as it has a tendency to weaken the parts stuck on with liquid cement.

i think after the paint is removed... it better to soak it in soapy water.... cos the fluid is damn oily....

Watch out for the sheriff! You don't want to mess with that guy.

j/k

The brake fluid trick avoids a lot of extra kit buying. Way to go!
