I'm attempting to repaint a diecast car for the first time, an old Porsche by Corgi. I stripped it by soaking it in acetone. It worked surprisingly well, so I immediately dipped in another one, this time an old Matchbox BMW. However, the acetone did absolutely nothing to that one.
Can anyone tell if this was because of difference in the car paints (because the Corgi feels like a really cheap one whereas the Matchbox seems more expensive, opening doors, metal base etc)? Or did the acetone lose it's properties so quickly? I kept it in a glass jar with a lid on.
