Did you progress this one after the paint issues Dutch?

Dutch
No. But I determined to finish it before the summer.

Ooh. I feel for you, something similar thing happened to my A321... paint stripped and model still waiting to be repainted. Before the summer.

Ray Seppala
I had the same thing happen on an Airfix 737-200 which I need to get back on the bench

Interesting, fingers crossed for next painting 👍

Nightmare!

In addition to using a flat metal file, you can also use a small blade to scrape a surface more flat, and clean up the plastic a little. I wonder what it looks like on the model around the cabin. 🙂

Dutch
I may use oven cleaner spray. I will keep all y'all posted.

I have in the past used Tamiya Lacquer Thinner to strip the paint from models. Kitchen tissue, cotton swabs and a lot of elbow grease. It's a messy and smelly process, but the paint comes clean off and the plastic remains unharmed.

Happened to me making a Tamiya Kawaski bike. I used 600g wet & dry sandpaper (wet) but it took ages and I had to be careful not to remove some of the detail. As I said, nightmare.

very nice is it small in 1/144

Dutch
Charlie, yes, comparable to a F.28-1000.

I've used brake fluid. Soak it for a bit, the paint will easily rub off with a paper towel. The effect is kind of cool though. Is there something that could be done with it...
