Getting rid of a dip.

Well, I just decided to get back into the hobby after a hiatus. I was looking at some of my models and decided that I want to completely redo the color scheme for my Tyranids as well as do some conversions.

Now, my problem is that I dipped some of the models in wood stain in order to get that slimy look without a lot of effort (I needed to get the models done FAST). (http://www.minwax.com/products/onestep/Polyshades-color.cfm ) Do you think there will be a valid way to remove this by soaking it in something? The only model I\'m really looking to \"save\" is a Hive Tyrant (so it\'s all metal).

This was one of the \'fexes I did back then so you can get an idea of the mess it looks like: http://www.coolminiornot.com/102170

No big deal if there isn\'t a way to get it back to the old metal but it would be nice.

yeah there is a polyurethane remover you can get from the paint store for stripping furniture. i have done this before. it should take the paint off. but make sure you start washing it off within a 30 seconds or it will start to corrode it. also if there is any plastic whatsoever it will be MELTED
other than that you should be fine.

hope it helps.
