Hi there everyone! I tried to strip a Realborn newborn Emmy head. I was trying to paint the doll light biracial (I’m following Ashley Thacker’s paint with me on Facebook.) and I accidentally got too much color with one of the beginning layers so I tried to strip the head. The limbs are fine. I used rebornfx/waterborne air dry to paint with and I used a cheap nail polish remover with 100% acetone to strip. It got quite a bit off but there’s dried paint still stuck on the vinyl. I’m not sure what else to use. I used to use and love winsor and newton but I heard they changed their formula
Here’s what the head looks like now:
I went to Amazon and read some reviews. I am reading that it would not remove dried paint from brushes so I doubt it would strip a kit. They do say it is great to clean brushes out when finished painting.
Is this the rubbing alcohol to use? I read 99% is the strongest but it’s not safe for human skin. I would be wearing gloves. Would I need to use this product outside?
I edited to add the brand I have been getting but I also wanted to come back to say if using a lot of it to strip you probably should wear gloves to keep from drying your hands out so.
