how to strip paint......
 
off fiberglass?

one my model planes (yes nerd alert :salut:) i have a fiberglass cowling and i want to strip the paint off, trouble is its sprayed in fuel proof paint.

now what can i use to get it off without damaging the glass, I've tried most things including thinners and i cant get it to budge

any ideas?

Fine sand/glass paper?

yeah that works a little but its a funny kind of paint, sort of rubbery and it clogs up the paper
