Several things in one blog. Figures, and cars, James Bond and super villain, and paint remover.
I buy a lot of die cast cars, they are cheap, and durable. Although they typically are 1/64th scale I often use them anyway despite most of my collection being 1/72nd scale figures and HO 1/87 scale vehicles. Die cast cars often have a heavy coat of paint on them so to repaint them and still be able to see the detail I usually remove the paint first.

Read and follow the manufactures directs on chemicals and follow their safety guidelines. I try and get non-toxic ones, but sometimes you need something stronger.
