      White lightning cider would do it well. I know it stripped me and my mates stomachs in our late teens. Don't think buckfast would clear a body shell with out leaving some form of residue/hangover either!

      if aftershock, white lightening, diamond white, or pale cream sherry should fail (god forbid) try whatever variety of brake fluid Ford are recommending for current models - I've done bachman bodies and parkside kits with it and no problems. On no account mistake the Ardbeg for brake fluid or vice-versa.

      Last time I used superstrip was on a Bachmann 20 doing it to DRS 20/3 which revealed a lot of cracks. Not sure if it was from working the body and it was hid under paint or if it was the paint stripper. Have seen a couple of other horror story's along those lines. Needless to say the body was replaced with a PH designs one
