Excellent Information

The only thing is I wish it had more photo of the finish product. That Pan Am engine looks awesome, they should've published more photos of it to show off the final product.

Stripping paint

Once upon a time, the solvent du jour for stripping paint from a model was automotive brake fluid.  I haven't seen this mentioned in awhile.  Has it fallen out of favor?  If so, why?

Thanks, Andrew, for the great article!

Plastic horror stories

I've heard a number of horror stories about brake fluid attacking plastic, making it brittle and more susceptible to breakage. These stories have become common enough that brake fluid has fallen out of favor.

I enjoyed the article and looking forward to Part 2.  Do you have a List of Materials and have you written any articles on installing the metal hand rails?
