strip paint

[busacruz]

just wondering if anyone has tried to use stripper on the plastics with any success or does it harm the plastic.... the can says not to use on plastic but i cant see why you cant as long as your careful . i am going to repaint my busa and even though i want to do a good job any help stripping would be a plus.... thanks guys

granted its not a bike, but i am using this 1 spray can / aerosol can stripper stuff i got at walmart (comes in a orange/white can) and used it just recently and some parts of my car that im sanding down to metal (and just taking the layers off the GFX/bumper, ect) and have not had any problem. says to let sit for 15 mins when the part is warm (aka, let it sit outside for 30 mins b 4 applying) and it usally only takes 3-4 mins before the paint bubbles all off.

dont use stripper,just makes a mess. Just block with some 320-400 and yer ready to go. Couple hours tops.If you use stripper and it doesnt destroy the plastic(which it might)you'll still have to scuff them up.
