Couldnt find anywhere else to put this so i put it here.
Does any know or have experience in removing factory paint from ABS plastic?
The plastic in question are the outer door handles and i need to strip the paint back so it is bare plastic.
However, the plastic cannot be damaged in the process.
I am looking for a finish as if the plastic had never been painted in the first place.
Now, I dont want to hear any one say "sand it off" - it is not an option in any way shape or form.
Sending them to someone is not an option either.
I have 100+ handles to strip and i need the finish to be good and not scratched up or scuffed, or chemically damaged for that matter.
I have searched online, have not really found anything solid and conclusive and most of it is out of the U.S so those products cant be bought here.
Not willing to use brake fluid either.
I guess that whatever i need to use should be cost effective as well - if its $40 a litre, its probably out of the question (unless that will do 100 handles).
So, does anyone know what works and what i shoudl be looking at.
