    When I strip paint off plastic models, there is usually a wierd film left on the model... especially noticable on clear plastic. Does anyone else experience this, and how do you get it off most easily?

    What are you using to strip the model with?

    I use 90% alcohol in most cases. After I'm satisfied with the job, I rinse in warm water. Sometimes the alcohol will get dirty and leave a film, but the water an a soft tooth brush quickly takes care of that.

    Thanks for the response!

    I used 91% alcohol as well. I’ve used warm water at a rinse too, but haven’t had luck removing the film. I’ll give it another try!
