Trailering this accessory into the Forum, I picked up this Trailer at the TImonium show last month. Not always easy to find C&O stuff like this all the time.

Unique and interesting finds.
 My contribution this week is brake fluid. DOT 3 brake fluid, to be exact, that was suggested to me as a remover for paint without attacking the plastic. It worked perfectly.

Chops, thank you for this inspiration. I totally botched a paint job on a streamlined sleeper yesterday. Nothing I tried could salvage it, and it was all with enamel spray paint. Picked up a bottle of DOT 3 brake fluid at O'Reilly's and it was a miracle, the crap came right off. Hoo-rah!

YW, it was someone else who suggested it to me, on the Forum. The trick was to use DOT brake fluid- I used some other kind and was laboring under the impression that one could only buy this environmentally friendly stuff, probably vegetable oil is my guess, until the friendly TFer told me to get DOT 3 type. I would like to see your end product!
