Hah, that's why I sacrificed the rockbuster body instead of the monster beetle body :)

Overseas that's a great option, but in the states that stuff isnt available. BUT I found the Easy Off stuff worked like a charm.... unfortunately that took me ruining the RB body to find out the 1st suggested spray would NOT work :( .

You guys are lucky, you have a few options which is a good thing, we dont have many............... luckily the easy off worked.

:laugh: I killed several bodies. I had the chance that a riend has a new sand blasting cabinet. But if the oven cleaner works (you are lucky on this point ;) ) You can use caustic soda. ( JR advices) . That exists in liquid or cristals. For me, the liquid is more efficient. After, you have the ultimate solution: elbow oil with sand paper. 600 800 and 1000? ( I'm not a pro for that)

Yeah I don't have the patience for sanding all the paint off, I almost didnt want to deal with the Lunchbox body as I spent nearly 2 hours wet sanding the whole body down to remove visible scratches in the paint... I'm proud of myself for sticking with that though. lol
