Yea man, I use denatured alcohol at work all the time. Alcohol is one of the weakest solvents. Basically, it's only good for getting oils off of surfaces. I mean, hahaha the reason we use denatured alcohol is because it won't hurt the paintjob! As far as what you should do... maybe naptha. But man, I mean no harm to anyone else's posts... but do not use laquer thinner! That is one of the strongest solvents you could use and will melt that plastic fast. You'd be better off with a messed up paint job than melted pieces. It's way too risky.
You may want to try soaking the pieces in some brake fluid. This is an old trick we use, but make sure you test it on something else ahead of time. I'm gonna talk to my boss and see if he knows something too. --------------------  |
