Default how to remove paint

I was using rattle can to do a body, I goofed up on the first half of the body and stopped, what can I use to remove the paint?

If it isn't a large area, alcohol swabs work wonders for me. If it is a large amount, try Windex or brake fluid.

Use break fluid it works well but you have to soak the painted area for a while

It can get expensive but I've used nitro fuel and it works well.

I already told you homie! dot 4 brake fluid. But it's not worth the time and effort just spend the money on a new body. even if you did "skrape" the paint off the new paint probably won't stick

Not true Jimmy the paint will stick fine. Just soak the body for a day or two and it will wipe right off

If nitro will remove a paint how to protect it against nitro?
