I just got some rear panels for my Challenger that are structurally way better than what I have on the car now. The problem is that someone painted them black and it is popping off in places. I'd like to strip them and start over if I can. What can be used to strip them without screwing up the plastic?

Use laquer thinner. That's what I did to remove the black paint from my white panels.

Okay, I think I have some here, I'll give it a shot. These panels are white ones painted black also. Thanks!

It is very messy. Use lots of clean towels or rags and keep pouring on the solvent. It will take the paint right off. I had to repaint my panels white again but at least if I get a scratch on them, I don't see black.
