1. What kind of plastic are the foglight covers?
2. Best way to get what appears to be the rattle can paint off? In researching how to get the paint off the plastic foglight grills I have found the following: 1. vegetable oil 2. nail polish remover 3. oven cleaner 4. DOT 3 brake fluid 5. Testors Easy Lift-Off 6. Castrol Superclean 7. Simple Green 8. isopropyl alcohol 9. Purple Power 10. Windex ( for acrylic paint) 11. Tamiya Lacquer thinner or Gunze Mr. Color Thinner 12. bumper stripper 13. blast with baking soda 14. WD-40 |
