    Great video.. love your work and your methods. I found these cool little abrasive sanding needle type things at my hobby store. They are really good for this type of project. They can be expensive but if you take a super fine grit model sand paper and clue it to tooth picks they do the same job.

    Thanks for the vid Poundz. I found that clear nail polish, yes clear. Will strip paint very well without damaging the plastic. Nail polish remover can be a hassle unless diluted. Clear nail polish right out the bottle.... spread on, wipe off. Made my life a whole lot easier. Cheers.
