Dizzy Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Yep acitone works very well. I just be sure not to get it on your skin. It will dry out the skin under your fingernails and it will hurt like HELL for a week. dizz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Go to your local automotive parts or hardware store & buy a spray can of paint remover. Remove the caseback & place on a dry, flat surface & spray a good, thick coat of paint remover over the caseback. Wait 20 minutes (or whatever the instructions prescribe) & remove the remover & paint. If any paint remains, repeat. Really quite easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAMman Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 I have used nail varnish remover (acetone ?) with good results on both Panerai 005 and MBW Seadweller casebacks. I brushed on the liquid with fine art brush and then used a wooden toothpick to remove the softened paint from the grooves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 "Polystripper" or whatever that paint remover is called. That stuff works GREAT for removing any kind of paint or varnish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
