description  I recently picked this up after looking for one for a while. Now its here I am not too sure if I like it or not This example is in really good condition and looks like its hardly been used. The only let down in the body as its been painted badly on the outside The paint is thin though so it may strip off easily. Can anyone suggest the safest way to strip it without wrecking the shell?

Buy some Autosmart Tardis from eBay - its a car cleaning (tar remover) solvent but its worked for me every time. Thinly applied brush paint should come off with readily - just put soem on a soft microfibre cloth and rub away at the paint. On my Egress shell i actually had good success on some of it with just warm soapy water, think it was partly painted with poster paints.

Hi Luke, I had great success with a product called De-solvit Graffiti remover (polycarb safe). I left it to soak a while and the paint gradually started to peel. Afterwards it came off easiely and looked like new! Love the Thunder Dragon myself! I think they look great in black (take a look at mine).

That's an easy solution, sell it to someone else to do or try the graffitti remover but don't leave it on too long between rinses
