(...) i (...) help? They don't have faces. This part is used to make the dummy truck at the unpowered end of the Metroliner. Look at the brickshelf instruction scan, it should clear it up. Many older 9V sets use a similar design for the dummy (...) (24 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) 3 actually. I won't ask my customers what I wouldn't accept myself. Brasso is YOUR friend, but not mine. :-) Dont take that as a condemnation of your practice, merely a statement of my preference. ++Lar (24 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Question
 
(...) Brasso is for those of you who lack nailpolish remover. It works better, just soak for a few min, and out it comes clean. (acetone, or the replacements...works great on printed parts, that's how I cleaned up my MF's for the LUGNET stickers+ (...) (24 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.trains)

Hey guys, Ask for "Sally Hansen(R)" No More Mistakes(tm) MANICURE CLEANUP STICK. It's not perfectly effective (leaves behind some bumpy buildup even after the color has dissolved away) but it can quickly remove Star Wars printing from 1x1 green (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I re-tried nail polish remover (having unsuccessfully tried it awhile back) and it didn't do anything at all, even left soaking overnight. James, what brand were you using? The only things I have found that work are brake fluid (on trans (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Question
 
(...) Paul, did the paint come off by soaking in the polish, or did you have to rub? If so, sounds similar to Brasso. I really want something which requires less elbow grease (my hands are already @^%*& enough without sitting polishing pieces by (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Question

Uh-- This is a like a hard-nibbed felt tip pen with solvent in it. Took about 20 seconds of rubbing on a 1x1 tile to get it clean. Leaves behind a shiny outline of where the print was. (24 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.trains)
