tractor_37260 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Will 5-10% diluted IPA affect model glazing if left fitted when paint stripping ? TIA Ken Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Mick Bonwick Posted August 31, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 31, 2020 That will very much depend on the model. I have never had a problem with glazing on Hornby, Bachmann, Heljan, Oxford Diecast or Dapol, but I did have a disaster on another modeller's diecast bus. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't work on any buses, mainly Bachmann/Hornby and Heljan models, so should be OK then. Some of the newer Bachmann models appear to have their glazing "welded in"....lol ....even when left overnight in the freezer,they still tend to break rather than come out cleanly.

Strange that you are having this problem with newer Bachmann models as I have found exactly the same problem with the newer Hornby Class 60 locos. Like you, put body in freezer and still broke glazing and an upright in side windows! Luckily had spare windows after fitting lazerglaze to a previous respray.
