    Decided to finally get around to trying my hand at a repaint and I'm having a little trouble removing the paint from Cybertron Clocker. I'm using 91% isopropyl alcohol and at first I left the parts in for a day, but when the paint didn't come off I left in for another day. Paint's still on there pretty good. So are there some "factory" paint applications that don't come off as easily as others?

    Yep, some fights to the bitter end. Depending on what color your going to paint it, you may want to to just go on ahead and paint it. or try 99%, or another option like Purple power (I never use anything other than 91%). You can find out more by reading the stickies at the top of the page.
