Saw a posting on a blog where the author used Simple Green to clean plastic figures. Has anyone tried this product? Pete |

Simple Green will remove most paints, so don't clean your hobby stuff with it. Use regular soap and water. I use Oxyclean to clean my unpainted plastic troops that I buy used. You don't know where they have been. It's great. For regular cleaning use warm water and soap if they are not too dirty. For cleaning painted plastic figures I clean them dry, using a very large soft brush, like a make up brush. Mike Bunkermeister Creek

Yes, Simple Green is great for stripping acrylic paint from figures, so I only use it on new figures from the molds and rinse very well to remove the cleaner. |
