nitomors is the kiddy i used, very aggressive stripper so i would do a test patch first, you can also see what they are like underneath, it might actually be the reason he painted them though unfortunately! :sad:

He said they were painted before he bought them, he's now got a full set which is why he's selling these ones (there's always an excuse ain't there lol). Pic probably didn't work 'cause I used the URL straight from the email lol



EDIT: I really need to use that preview button more lol

BBT can only supply 1 side, or maybe neither now! i iknow 1 side was dropped by vw ages ago and since no-one makes pattern G60 arches BBT eventually ran out of stock too.

Certain plastics Nitromors won't harm.  I'm pretty sure ABS is pretty inert to it.
