Bladerunner Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Is that to remove paint off your dash trim? If so I would be careful it does not soften the plastic. Not that it would remove it, would it not be safest to spray primer and new colour on the existing paint. Just a thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselPig Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Meths won't remove certain types of paint. Typically only shellac based varnish. It will attack some types of plastic. For cellulose paint you need a cellulose thinner and this again attacks plastic. What and where is the paint you want to remove? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
