Sam I Am Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 I have been setting up my hobby room, which has allowed me to unpack and organize many boxes of models and get some things done that have been put off for years. One of which is stripping old paint in preparation of rebuilding. This latest one was built by myself in 1980 and painted with rustoleum spray paint. 40 year old, HEAVY, paint. 6hrs in Super Clean and it is spotless. I had forgotten it was molded in red. ? Since I am telling on myself, I painted the interior green, and hand painted wide whites on the rallye wheels...? What can I say, I was 13...

espo Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 If you haven't already, put the hand painted white walls in the Super Clean also. I do this even with new tires as it gets rid of some of the shine on the sidewalls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunajammer Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 One of my side hobbies is restoring lamps that interest me and I use Super Clean A LOT to clean up grody things. This is a mid-century mushroom/UFO lamp that someone "refurbished" using the most disgusting texture paint under silver that was unbelievably inappropriate for the lamp. In Super Clean, the paint literally peeled off in sheets leaving the bare metal with all its minor imperfections clean as a whistle. I love this thing, it's so dieselpunk.
