Members Made Posted July 21, 2015 Members Share Posted July 21, 2015 EDIT: Okay, so couldn't type when i posted. Anyway, i'm looking for some good advice on what to do here. I just bought this old Tokai, and it's covered in some weird red paint. Seller said it was latex paint, and that the original under it, is nitrocellulouse. I've tried the following with no result: Turpentine(Mineral edition, maybe it's called mineral spirit or something), rubbing alcohol, benzine, dishwashing agent, soft soap (the brown stuff). I didn't leave any of it for very long, but it didn't seem to have any effect whatsoever. My girlfriends' nail polish remover though.. It eats right through the red paint, and i'm afraid a bit more than that. looks like it takes the top coat off the original paint too. Its acetone based. I tested under the pick guard. Tell me if you need more info., I'm really hoping it can be removed without damaging the original paint too much. Sorry if i've made spelling/language-mistakes, not a native english speaker Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
