Help please with flaperons

[Dave Holl]

Have tried using the gell type paintstripper and it works very well but it is messy and takes quite a while, i have also used a hair drier and that also works but takes a lot longer.
i think i will wait for the cold winter nights and do it in the family room when I have nothing better to do!

My kit was purchased in 1995. I bought it in 2005. It was in the rafters of a small barn. Last year I removed the plastic from the flaperons. I tried stripper with poor results. I then took a heat gun on low heat and the film peeled right off. With the stripper I removed little pieces. With the heat gun it came off in sheets. Jim
