I don't know, sometimes those things work, sometimes they don't for me, keep going to the next alternative until it works for the figure you're working on.

Tip 2:

Rubbing aclchol. Doesn't hurt plastic takes paint off real good.

In the warhammer world we use simple green brake cleaner to strip paint without hurting our small detailed figures.

Should work for bigger things.
