For scrubbing, I use my ultrasonic toothbrush with an old head. Works like magic.

I have used this stuff and I just brush on a thick coat and leave it, rather than waste ten times the amount in a bath. The recesses that hold the paint will contain soft paint, just use a dental pick to grab the hard to reach places. I also use an electric toothbrush head, it's great.

Honestly just buy a 5 litre barrel of IPA for £20 and it will last you forever. You can keep using it until it basically evaporates away. Ive left my GW metal and plastic minis soaked in it for upto a week before and no ill effects. Usually just soak overnight (laziness) and then in the morning either blast it under a high pressure setting on the shower head or drop it in the ultrasonic cleaner and stripped back to new. Anything left in the deepest details just gets a second soak.

@joergpage9377 11 месяцев назад

A bottle of this product costs about 15£/liter. I always use an old tooth brush and denatured alcohol which costs 2€/liter. All paint is stripped on plastic and metal minis, except the deep recesses and never lost any details. Resin never tested by me but i think it'll work. After stripping about 10 minis i'm using a normal coffee filter to clean the d.a. and it' s ready for the next Minis.

@greglohman6750 11 месяцев назад

Caution in that I discoverd that siocast does not stand up to this treatment, it pulls something out of the plastic that makes it crumble. All other plastics I've done this with are fine.

@joergpage9377 11 месяцев назад

@@greglohman6750 Thank you for that. Fortunately Siocast products didn't reached my desk till today. I knew that Siocast is an upcoming plastic mix which is used more and more by smaller companies. Good to have some amount of BioStrip in reserve. Hopefully BioStrip would work on Siocast without causing any harm.

@GeorgeSlade1 6 месяцев назад

One thing I noticed using this product is Plastic and metal no NOT say time - MAX where as resin does so potentially no issue leaving longer as you showed!

@bartledub 7 месяцев назад

This stuff looks brilliant! I always wondered if there was a way of stripping (the minis) without any mess. Great to see a tried and tested product made for minis rather than a home brewed solution.

@My8osGR 7 месяцев назад

For the metal pieces ONLY, the best stripping medium is Nitro paint stripper. But it has to be used with caution in an open space. It strips absolutely everything, including putty fillings and ocassionally CA glue joints. For plastic pieces I would recommend either isopropylic alcohol or oven cleaning spray. For 3D printed pieces I would only use oven spray.

@sweatilaa5325 11 месяцев назад

nice video on how to strip minis. really appreciate how you tested the product by using it for way longer than the instructions said, nice to know that some materials will get ruined while others will look absolutely fine :) i still just use 90% alcohol to strip my minis. give them a bath for 20-30 minutes, give them a scrub, and if i need to they get another bath. is it the best solution? no. does it work well enough? yes :)

I just use isopropyl alcohol for stripping. works fine and doesn't damage anything. It's probably cheaper too.

Looks like Durostrip, which we had in Poland for years (but is green). It's similar in price, looks and behaves the same, I wonder if it's the same main ingredient. Either, I prefer this muuuuch more to any "liquid" stripper.

@HerbertMiniatures 10 месяцев назад

Great video as always and what a cool product! Typically I have used either IPA for plastic or resin minis and Acetone for metal, but both process would need significantly more time to do and a respirator mask in a well ventilated room. Effective yes, but more time consuming and risky than this method. My only question is did you have to take any respirator like precautions in this undisclosed location that may or may not be a bathroom?

@ThePaintingCoach 10 месяцев назад

Thanks! The undisclosed location had a window open - but there was very little odour and no discernable fumes 👍🏻

Have you used Biostrip? Non toxic water based stripper I've used that worked OK for me, but didn't use on old or varnished ones

@ThePaintingCoach 11 месяцев назад

Yes I have! In my opinion this is better than Bio Strip - it isn't as thick, cleans better and doesn't melt bases if left too long :)

@GordonMcLachlan 11 месяцев назад

Great video! I've been using Biostrip to strip my minis. Do you know how it compares?

@ThePaintingCoach 11 месяцев назад

Cheers! Yes I have it - bio-strip is a lot thicker and smells a little more (although it isn't a bad smell). I think this cleans better and I also found that you have to be careful with timings using biostrip. Hope that helps!

@michaeltei4173 10 месяцев назад

I tried Meth spirits, simply green and yelling at it. I found Meth Spirits to be the best

@scotteverroad4545 7 месяцев назад

I was looking for a way to strip resin without melting it! I will probably buy some from Amazon. I was wondering,...I use Simple Green cleaner diluted with water in an ultrasonic cleaner. I was curious if you could dilute it water for a stronger/ faster turn-around? Also, as I mentione I use and ultrasonic cleaner, but any tips to break the super-glue joints? Great video! Liked, Subbed', Scott .

@Thornspyre81 3 месяца назад

The one thing I'm worried about is how much usage you can get from one bottle?

@toogreytogame 11 месяцев назад

I find methylated spirits works fine. It's cheap and doesn't harm any type of mini. You do have to leave it for a long time though. Oh...and never use it in a sonic cleaner, unless fire is what you're going for...

@ThePaintingCoach 11 месяцев назад

@AdamSpokes 11 месяцев назад

How many times can you use it?

@ThePaintingCoach 11 месяцев назад

I used it twice to good effect - the company say that the more you use it, the less powerful it becomes as the broken down paint will be in the solution

@mattygee37 11 месяцев назад

Looks like biostrip my go too stuff but thinner consistency

@ThePaintingCoach 11 месяцев назад

It's different to bio-strip (I have that here too). Thinner consistency, less of an odour and I feel it works better - biostrip has melted bases for me in the past

@ThePaintingCoach 11 месяцев назад

I've got Bio Strip 2.0 here - can confirm they are different - the Bio Strip is a lot thicker in consistency and I have found that it will melt the plastic bases if left too long - it had also damaged resin previously as well

@ThePaintingCoach I take that back, sorry dude! 🙂

@Novastrom 11 месяцев назад

This looks exactly the same as biostrip 20 or Diall Paint and Varnish remover. Both look and behave the same, not checked what’s cheaper though.

@ThePaintingCoach 11 месяцев назад

It's different to both - I have bio strip here. It's thinner with less odour, and in my opinion works better. I haven't tried Diall Paint Remover but someone else mentioned it in comments, and that seems a lot more hazardous based on the instructions and COSHH sheet
