    hi,

    i need to do some project that needs removing paint from my plastic bumper (and repainting it later of course).

    problem is, will stripsol ruin my plastic bumper? if it will, what else can i use to strip the paint from my bumper leaving me with the bare plastic?

    any ideas if brake fluid will ruin the plastic as well?

    i know sanding will do remove the paint, but it will take a lot of time to do this so its not a 100% option.

    thanks

    If you want you can try a small part just to test if the paint will be remove and see if there a reaction on the plastic bumper.
