The Wonderbus's ashtray facade is pretty funky -- a couple holes in the paint with rust peeking through, and the shift pattern is worn off. What's the easy and good way to remove the old paint so I can refinish it?
Over this side of the pond you can get new stickers for the shift pattern. Item # 111-000-000 halfway down the page

Which will do you absolutely no good if you go to the store and grab the first bottle you see and miss the tiny label that says "non-acetone". :)

I didn't know they made "non-acetone" nail polish remover, can't see it working as well as good old paint thinner....lol

Heh. You probably don't have a teenage daughter. We have learned much about nail polish removers in the Squirrel household.

My FLVWPS has 'em, too. Need to put some kind of protective coating over the decal, to avoid scratching. Something satin and not glossy, if my original ash tray's finish is any indication.

They have to make non-acetone for the women with acrylic nails. The acetone obviously eats off the glassy finish and will destroy the nails. Acetone is what you use when you want to soak the fake ones off. So there's your girly lesson for the week, boys. Could come in handy one day... in case you decide to turn drag queen or something. Or you can use the info to impress your woman. ;)

I used to BE someone's teenager daughter. My kid is 2, and can't see a bottle of nail polish without wanting her nails painted. Which is very messy on a 2 year old..... Hey, why don't you geniuses develop an instant-dry polish? You'd be rich!

It might come in handy for you as well since we know who you sleep with and he just might take a fancy to those kinds of things!:~)

Ha ha. You guys are so mean. I have yet, in 5 years, to ever see Jan with polish on his nails. Not that I've never dated a guy who did polish his nails.... black......

Yea, to impress your woman... all you need to do, is ask her "baby, are those fake or real?"

"Baby, do those come off with acetone?"
