Removing paint

Posted in Custom Workstation

Hey there guys! Newbie here again... Currently in the process of making a Red Hulk custom, but I did the mistake of settling for cheap art craft acrylic paint. The result was extremely uneven and no amount of layers would fix it, so I decided to start over. Now, in my experience, cheap acrylic paint is easy to remove. Just dip the figure in warm water for a little while and the paint peels right off effotlessly. The issue here is I primed the figure with white enamel acrylic spray paint. I still managed to remove most of the paint using the aforementioned method plus a toothbrush and my nails, however there's a lot of if left in the joints and indents. I haven't disassembled the figure yet to reach those spot a little bit easier, but also wouldn't mind a better way of removing the paint... I'm running out of nails and my fingers are getting sore...
