    yeah, we used to use this to remove lettering off truck/car doors when I worked in a sign shop back in college. it's nasty stuff, but gets all the paint off and doesn't effect the plastic at all.

    My apologies for my first post being one of digging up an old thread... but I just did this same thing, however, it severely yellowed my once pristine white plastic :( 

    I used yellow-cap Easy-Off and only applied long enough to remove a horrible enamel attempt on the red accents.

    Thoughts?
