Help on Toy Paint removal and Types of Apoxies

Posted in Custom Workstation

Hi , I am currently working on a bane action figure. The base body has a painted shirt on. How can I remove the paint on the body with stuff I can find at home? Thanks!

and would anyone recommend Magic Sculpt?

THANKS!

I used magic Sculpt when I started out. It's very similar to the Aves apoxy sculpt. (not fixit sculpt though, that's different than both.)

White Spirits or mineral spirits works well too, I soaked a figure in it for a good few hours and it didn't seem to affect the plastic of the figure.

I've never used Magic Sculpt but the testimonials on there website seem to be pretty positive

Acetone can be found at Walmart for $1, It's the best way to remove paint from figures. Try soaking a qtip in it and then wiping off the paint in one direction. Practice on a figure that can be messed up until you get the hang of it.

Never heard of Magic Sculpt

try using a small amount of acetone or nail polish remover. it would strip off the paint easily.

about the magic sculpt. I haven't tried it yet. I only use regular epoxy.

well. hope that helps.
