I always use EasyOff. The trick here is to use the original formula, if you use the unscented it won't work. I'll tell ya what else works is laquer thinner, but you may be at more risk to ruin any filler work you've done on the model with laquer thinner, it will weaken your glue as well. I've never had a problem with the easyoff.
There are things to consider, wear goggles, chemical rubber gloves, a respirator.
The fumes are nasty and will burn your throat and nose. Be sure to read all the warning labels on the can. Don't do this in the presence of household animals, dogs, cats, birds iguannas etc. You'll destroy their noses.
I spray it directly onto the figure in a plastic container, close the lid and let it sit for a 1/2 hour. Longer if you use enamel gloss paints.
I rinse the figure off with water, I have an old tooth brush to help with stubborn spots. Be sure that you don't do this stuff around food preparation areas. If you do use the kitchen sink, brotha, I'd spend some time washing it out really really good. Also, you've gotta becarefull with your environmental laws as to what you can put down your drain. If you've got spots that won't come off, repeat it again. Can't hurt.
Another thing I've learned from experience. And I've gotta tell ya. I've stripped more models than I've ever finished. Its called low self esteeme. Becarefull of splatter when using the toothbrush. And make sure that you put the container that your using for the first time on something that won't be effected by the easy off should it somehow melt the container your using. Like a concrete floor. I ALWAYS mark my container with a magic maker NOT FOR FOOD STUFF, just to make sure no one uses the container again for anything but what you used it for.
I use the stuff all the time even with resign figures, it works great. Hense the screen name... EasyOff.
Hope this helps.
