Fathead, you seem to be talking about an ordinary styrene body. Use 91% isopropyl alcohol to strip.

If you have an actual resin body, use the instructions David gave in the third post in this topic.

Fish eyes are usually a contamination/prep issue on a given base. The liquid paint film is repelled.

Peel is a topical condition. Usually an application issue related to the delivery ratio. Too much air, or not enough reduction. Yer not quite liquid enough for whatever reason

Old School here, I'm fond of a good ole gritty cleanser rouge. It gets in the shuts and seams and scritches them out, providing you take the time to brush them properly. Greasy feeling resins get Super Clean or Purple Power, and THEN "cleanserified"!

I was able to get three Monogram Cobras from Cincy Slots and I want to repaint two of them, so like I said , I should have read the whole thread and I wouldn't be asking these questions
