Anyone know of anything safe to use for stripping the paint off of plastics?

I don't want to dissolve any of the detail (although they are chaos, so maybe I'll end up with a nurgle team)

I have had great results with Over Cleaner. But please use in a well ventilated area.
Over Cleaner works great on Plastics and metals.

I also heard Simple Green is another great product for removing paint from Plastics.

If you can find Dettol - this works great.

I can get Dettol. Is this a soak-for-days process, or how is it used?

Brake fluid works a treat leave it for 24 hours and then scrub off with an old tooth brush

Yep. Soak for a few days and the paint slips off

Cheers....

I got another recommendation for simple green, i've found a bottle and I'll let you know how it does. Thanks for the answers all.
