I'd like to have more info on the use of Acetone on ABS plastic. If it eats away the plastic you are in fact doing more harm than good. How do you neutralize the acetone to stop it from eating away more than you want? I also read somewhere else that you can use acetone to glue 2 pieces of ABS plastic together. I'd like to get me Terror Drome white again, but not at the cost of degrading the plastic, or losing some of the details. Anyone who has successfuly used this method please give more detailed info on it.

Can't see anything working to be honest. The discolouration seems to penetrate quite deeply and not just the surface.

I'm no scientist but I'm thinking once your figures turn yellow that's it. Isn't the yellowing some sort of flaw or reaction inside of the plastic? I really can't imagine it being revearsed.
Yes I do have a pee pants Snow Job and Storm Shadow and my Spirit isn't looking so hot either. |
