    I saw your truck (machinehead) in the parking lot at the Mini Nationals. I parked right next to you and snapped a few pics of the paint. Very nice!

    Back on topic, have you tried acetone (light) on a rag?

    yea i actually used a bit of alcohol on a rag and it looked like it dried the hell out of the plastic so i put a little mothers, back to black on it i think it may have done the trick i cant really tell this late but tomorrow ill know for sure
