1930fordpickup Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Al Dawn detergent may work the power clean is better than the regular. Use gloves and scrub with an old tooth brush. Wash and repeat. I have read here that you can get the body to move with hot water but I have never done it. Please use a dust collector and or a mask when sanding it.

MeatMan Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Hot water does work. Have some cold water handy to dunk it in after you get it straight so it doesn't try to return to its original shape.I suggest reading other posts about resin cars. I just finished my first, and its not like working with styrene at all.Remember to only use superglue because solvent based glues for styrene simply won't work.Good luck.
