Picked this up on a couple of craigslist deals. I love it, all original except for the suspension, and my homemade coolant catch can.

Maybe try paint thinner. It should take off the spray can OD green and leave the original paint intact.

JRE · 04-19-2011, 11:15 PM

Syntheyic Reducer will take the spray can paint off and leave the other allone.

I'm not a paint guy, Are all reducers synthetic? Or do I actually have to read a label?
