[BaadAssGremlins] Re: Stripped paint from plastic Headlight doors,, Done!!!!!



Heres What I did.  I couldnt find any of the before cleaner so I 
tried some Citra-Solve  http://www.citra-
solv.com/products/allpurpose.html

We had a 50gal drum of it at work and I was about to get about 
3gallons of it.

I scored the paint with a wire welding brush.   My paint was really 
thick from a bad repaint and the wire brush didnt make contact with 
the plastic.

I soaked them for two days and the paint lifted right off.

I washed them with hot Soapy Dawn detergent and let them dry by a 
transformer at about 120deg.


They came out like new...........

I used a poly coating we use on our pumps that puts a light textured 
finish on the parts and makes them look like brand new ABS peices.
I'll decide later if I want to paint them or leave em black.

But....They turned out great!

Thanks for everyone help!
