Stupid error

Several years ago I asked here and Simple Green was suggested. I found it very good.

Now I find I need to again remove paint. I would go with Simple Green but I've read, here on TMP, that the manufacturer had changed the product and it is no longer as good.

That might be true but I thought I would ask what the collective wisdom of TMP is on this subject

Yes I just tried Simple Green as a paint remover, on some scratch built space ships, to no effect. However the local ACE Hardware store has "Lift Off" sold as a graffiti remover. It seems to be working fine, no damage to the plastic though some of the glue(CA mostly)has softened.
