Using 91% alcohol and Testor's ELO, I have been stripping some K Line and Lionel plastic O gauge passenger cars for repainting in Wabash Blue livery and Illinois Central Chocolate and Orange livery. I recently acquired a Lionel 15" aluminum baggage car and would appreciate some guidance concerning the correct method for stripping original paint from a smooth-side aluminum car.
I assume the repainting process (using a Badger air brush) would be the same as that used for plastic cars, but would like to confirm my supposition.
Thanks
