Reply to "How to remove stripes from K-Line passenger car?"

Cut a paper towel a bit larger than what you want to remove, saturate the paper towel with Walthers Solvaset and wait about 45 minutes. Make sure the paper towel stays wet. You may have to reapply. You can sometimes work off stripes with just a fingernail. Otherwise, I like wooden toothpicks.  Have a bunch handy because they’ll saturate and become squishy enough to no longer scrape.  I like to move the toothpick on an angle with a pencil eraser motion. Once you get it 90% off or better you can get the remainder with some paper towel soaked in solvaset and just burnish it off. 
no matter what you do, it will leave a different sheen behind. 
Rinse the whole shell. Let dry and re-clearcoat. 

That’s the “gentlest” way I know to do it. It’ll take lionel lettering off easily. If it doesn’t do anything, move on to ELO. I would sand it as a last resort, it’s too easy to burn thru the base color.
