The subsequent coat of paint created that was......eerrr.....not all that pleasing to observe. So after unintentionaly removing some paint from another project I decided to concentrate on this :mpup for a bit.

Have since come to the conclusion that Valejo Model Color 893 is most likely close to what 3B might have looked like, or not, but that's what I'm going with :dance

What did you use for paint removal, looks very effective. :popcorn

I have a can of Pollyscale Easy Lift Off paint and decal remover, which makes a bigger mess then rubbing alcohol when stripping acrylics, but is very effective when it comes to removing old enamel as you can see. I just used alcohol and a flat brush on the MB32 tracks. Just don't use the Easy Lift Off on Revell plastic for any length of time as the plastic gets brittle and will literally crumble.
