Here I show you how I strip second hand models! Always satisfying and someone requested it a while ago so why not share something I know. have a wonderful rest of your day!
Great video! Do you rinse the model between dips in the alcohol? I've only ever used Simple Green and L.A.'s Totally Awesome. You're right those take a lot longer. I might have to try alcohol next time.
Thanks man:) and yes the initial 30 min soak gets it to optimal scrubbing condition. After that you can just dunk it while your scrubbing it. Iso is the way to go!!👍✌️
That's interesting man I haven't tried that yet! I love GSW they have great products and the shipping actually doesn't take as long as id expect. Ill be trying some of this in the near future.
Are there separate considerations for resin? For example I have a GW plastic model with 3D printed resin bits. Will this still work or will I damage my boy?
No it should be fine for resin as well. I have used this method on forge world models and its turned out great with no damage to the resin what so ever. I wouldn't leave it in there an excessive amount of time but for an hour long dip or so you should have no problem.
Yes I always Prime My minis. I recommend using primers specifically made for miniature/scale modeling. If you cant get your hands on any of that you may want to soak your models longer.
@haroldh3 yes it can if it is an acrylic varnish made specifically for miniature painting/scale modeling. Anything else used for other purposes I can't speak for but for general varnish it will absolutley work!
@@DeckDivMiniatures be careful, some cleaner have a heating feature. And even without using it, it can heat up the alcohol and make vapour. To be used in room with air flow.
@@lorrnoke99you can put the IPA inside of a plastic container with a lid, and then put that container into the ultrasonic cleaner. You'll get the same cleansing effect due to how ultrasonics work but you won't risk fumes being potentially ignited.
@te9591 great reccomendation. Sounds like you've been in the hobby a lot longer than me lol I love pewter models though!! I have one video on an old azrael and it was a true joy to paint.
