Can anyone recommend some good brands? And where to buy.

I've got some cheap stuff from bunnings. Doesn't seem to do very well, glad wrap or not.

How much did you use stripping a mini?

Any automotive paint supplier will have some good stuff on the shelf.
If you can get your hands on aircraft grade stuff go for it thats some potent stuff that.

Hi

I'm stripping mine at the moment as well. The stripper i'm using is from Septone ( super cheap auto) it's worked well for me ,it's taken it of in one hit you've just got to make sure you rough the surface up first so it gets under the paint. I just ran over it with 80Grit sand paper.

Have fun :P
