need to know most efficient and economical paint stripper

[fiatboy]

I have recently read or heard that bleach will remove paint from styrene; I do not know about resin.  I am thinking maybe "Bleche White" tire sidewall cleaner.  I do not have space at my place for a permanent 'basin' of the "purple pond".  The Castrol material seemed to be very inefficient.  Oven cleaner seems pretty efficient but is it too strong?  Thanks.

I use brake fluid all the time.

Super Clean is much more "efficient" than either oven cleaner or Bleche White in my opinion.

You don't need a permanent basin.

You can pour it into one for stripping, & then pour it back into the original container when you've finished.

Won't take any more space than either of the other two.

It works better & faster than Bleche White, you can use it over & over again, there are no noxious fumes as with oven cleaner & no difficult disposal as with brake fluid.

It has a pleasant smell, & is completely biodegradable.

When it's life is over, you can just dump it.

Just remember to use gloves.

It's nothing more than a degreaser which means it will "degrease" your hands by taking off a layer or 2 of flesh!

But I would do the same for the others as well.
