Sup WIP, i have a question-

I was in the last thread asking about stripping a X-wing ship after a less-than-stellar repaint.

I poured the Simple Green I had into a bucket and put the ship in, but I have 1 issue-

The ship floats.

I could get around this by stripping it one half at a time, but I was wondering if simple green can dissolve plastic after a long period of time.

So /wip/, tell me- Does simple green deteriorate plastic after a long period of time?

It shouldn't, but why not weigh the ship down with something?

What kind of questions?

Have you tried deflating it's ego by insulting it?

Tie it to a washer or a bolt to weigh it down.

Pardon for the Australiaization. Only have a phone camera.

This is my quasi-Bretonnia knight. White is definitely not an easy color to paint. My painting skills have been improving (I'm very good with blues and darker colors), but I'm mostly pleased with how the knight turned out. He is the standard bearer for my knights in whfb 3rd, and a normal knight in my song of blades and heroes warband.

Tips?

Last pic was actually horrible. Lance is bet btw because it is molded to the Knights legs, which had to be stretched so he could fit the horse.

I tried calling it a piece of shit, but it has enough shields/hull to protect it's inflated ego.
I don't have any of that in my apartment on-hand, and it's 2 AM.

Does simple green damage plastic?

Simple green does not damage plastic. It's largely pretty good at getting paint off.
