Remove glued on parts

[R. Thorne]

Don’t know where I had heard of this “technique”, but gave it a try.  Had to use a different body (don’t ask) and didn’t want to go to the trouble of making another set of bobbed rear fenders.  These were fastened with Tamiya extra thin cement and removed with the same product.  I simply flooded the area where it was fastened originally with cement, let it sit for 3-5 minutes, and pried it off with my fingers.  I had tried this before applying cement, but it would not budge.  Stands to reason the cement would “melt” the original bond.  Anyway, it worked for me, and the fenders and body suffered little deleterious effects.
