Can anyone please tell me the best way to remove the
adhesive that stuck to my Fw-190 canopie without taking the enamel paint off? Im using bare-metal foil as masking agent btw.
thank you

Sgt. I've had good results using baby oil to remove that residue. Use it sparingly and wipe it off with a clean soft cloth. I dip a microbrush in the oil and use that to kind of scrub it off. If you try this let us know how you made out, Wingman out.

Thanx Wing. That did the trick. My FW-190f-8 is now finished and awaiting its first jabo mission. Now I can start on my a.m. f3f-1. Got any advice?

Outstanding Sgt. I never heard of an F3f-1. What is that? Wingman out.

Wingman, its a pre-war Grumman bi-plane. It was just before the Wildcat. It outa be pretty cool to build with its doped aluminum fuselage and chrome yellow wings. Very colorful. Once again; thanx for the tip.
I'll pass it on.
