Question Removing paint

Just a quick question. What is the best way to get spray paint off of plastic, i sprayed my grill orange and now regret it. Just want to take it back to the bare plastic again. Would something like Nitromors work or would that damage the plastic? Thanks.

Paint thinners should do it if you haven't lacquered it.

Paint thinners would strip the lacquer off it anyways. Use a standard thinners or you will melt the plastic.

There's one on eBay called "Dolphin Saliva".

Give it a go mate, highly rated stuff.
