This is a little warning to everyone about removing designs on mini-figures.  Do Not use brake fluid.  It kills the plastic and discolors it.... does remove designs and paint though.  Kills plastic meaning cracks them and makes them brittle.  

Not sure if everyone knew this and was I just retarded to do it.  My uncle is a big model train guru and use is on trains.  That technique does not cross over into mini-figure customizing.

This is for your information.

Glad to be back and hope to be around a little more.  Work is slowing down so free time is showing its pretty face.

Yes, it is from experience.I have lots of parts to remove designs from and little time to do it in.  So when I heard of this trick I was too easily enticed.
