Belated thanks for a very useful thread Jamie. I'm trying to strip some of my old plastics now, so I was hoping you could elaborate on the process - in particular, did you dilute the cleaner or just use it neat?
I didn't have any Tesco or Dettol to hand, but used something similar, diluted in water (though fairly strong) but an overnight soak seems to have had no effect. I'll try to get some of the stuff you recommend next time I'm in Tesco and see if that works better.

I use Nitromors for metal models and it has the advantage of also stripping off fingerprints, nasal hairs and the film over your eyeballs.

Could come in handy if you are on the run

I'll try to get some of the stuff you recommend next time I'm in Tesco and see if that works better. I would not add water. Might have a effect to the stuff. Like if you put water on super glue. Best just taken it out from the bottle. The Pine cleaner will not caquse any harm to the models. I had bits in a tub with the stuff for over five days that least. Apprently just anything that has pine in it will help paint strip plastic. But I think I'll stick with what has work for me.
