Wow now thats a filthy gearbox and looks like the wrong grease too could that damage the plastic?

Finally decided I couldn't live with the standard of the white paint on the Striker body & chassis, and the driver/cockpit "painting" really needed completely stripping - so the decals have gone :cry: prior to it getting the De-Solv_it Grafitti Remover treatment.

Still looks good before and after!
Guess I'm just starting to like the Striker more and more... :lol:

I'll definitely keep an eye on this to sneak a few tips on the driver detailing :blink: Will you be going for the box art or a slight variation? :side:
