Your “if your enjoying this video” bits always make me laugh 😂 love the channel keep up the awesome content ❤
They are fun to do! Thank you so much. You are very kind!
I had to look it up, but in the US we just call it Denatured Alcohol, it's the same thing as Methyl Spirits. (Calling it the Meths might be confusing here, too... lol)
Does it have the weird purple colour over there?
Dettol is what I use overnight - the cocktail sticks are a great tip!
I do like Dettol but I find it a bit messy and goopy.
Detol is the absolute worst... Dont use it, and dont tell others to use it either...
Denatured alcohol here in the states. Thank you for the video!!!
no problem y man. I hope you enjoyed it! Are you about to strip some miniatures?
Managine to maintain the bullet hanging is pretty impressive.
I have to admit I never noticed it was on there! Youre right, that was a fragile piece. Are you about to strip some miniatures?
Yeah definitely like to see comparison video of biostrip vs meths
Ok my man I shall add it to the (ever growing) to do list!
Love your style guys
You are very kind! Thank you!
I use meths in an old cooking sauce jar. Uses less liquid and has a better seal to prevent evaporation. Also, if the meths gets a bit too 'dirty', I poor it through a coffee filter 👍🏻
Not used meths, but I’ve found filtering dettol after a few too many uses helps to make it a bit less gross (idk whether it helps the dettol in any other regard tho tbh).
A coffee filter is a good shout! I think they sell them in my local Sainsbury's!
What have you been stripping lately?
I like the original paint scheme,its like infared vision
Would you want a squad of them?
@@SnakeWorksStudio yes that would be awesome
These videos with Mrs Snake Works has taught me that Marcell has spelling ability almost as bad as me. 😀
I blame the auto correct!
Don't use iso or meths in an ultrasonic cleaner. The agitation increases fumes, which are quite flamible
This is advised although I’ve done it countless times and never had any fire
@@gdmunn83 probably pretty safe if the area is very well ventilated, but I'd avoid it
I just keep an eye on it as it’s going. Only takes a couple of mins a cycle in it. Any signs of smoke I would just shut off
Metho in ultrasonic cleaner is perfectly fine. Stop being a baby... Just dont use the heater otherwise it boils... If you're that worried about the fumes, then dont do it next to your bed or in your dining room table.
Do you just use a normal tub or jar or something?
Great video, which is much better than my video. LoL
Thanks! but yours are much better!
The only product I've ever used that actually works as a paint stripper super quick is VMS Clean Slate but again it's expensive. For the gloves you don't need huge ones, just put them as far on your hand as you can easily then blow into the glove near your wrist inflating it a bit and making it super easy to put on 👍🏻
Is that an American brand?
I use isopropyl alcohol or a non abrasive degreaser to strip minis. Subbed to help towards the titan goal!
what is a non abrasive degreaser? and thank you! we are inching closer every day!
I used to use break fluid… it is best in my opinion that. Metilated but very dirty, unhealthy, environmentally hard to dispose of.
Nowadays I moved into metilated becose of price. It’s much cheaper than Isopropilic, and also reusable. And it evaporates so to dispose of you only have to open the jar (which I recommend you above other kind of containers…), but beware of vapours and ventilate well.
Indeed I never have to dispose anything as it evaporates naturally when brushing and it’s almost fully reusable I find myself constantly changing the jar, filtering at the same time if very dirty, and refilling with fresh metilated to cover up the new pile of minis.
Note, fine for plastic and metal. Never tried with resins, so make a try before splash your valuables minis.
I hadn't thought of using a jar. thats genius! I might have to try that next time. Thank you!
What have you been stripping lately?
@@SnakeWorksStudio mostly Arrer boys, to prime white and try shades and contrast…
well me plaining on going to a war gaming show in july and sell new and ues stuff thare and might with new know how ues it to get butch of uesed models or re do my old elder army with bad paint sceam i do like
Are you looking for anything in particular there?
Well I have used Super Clean to strip the paint off of hundreds of miniatures and it works perfectly to take paint off of your metal or plastic miniatures since I have done both. As for resin that I do not know. But you will need to wear gloves for when you are cleaning your miniatures after leaving them in it.
Unfortunately super clean is only available in America. Impossible to get in any other country
What sort of product is super clean?
@@SnakeWorksStudio its a degreaser
@@SnakeWorksStudio It is a cleaning product so it is "Super Clean is a brand of cleaning and degreasing products that can be used for a variety of purposes on many surfaces. Super Clean is designed to be fast and easy to use, and can remove grease, grime, oil, wax, dirt, tar, scuff marks, and stains. It's also biodegradable, phosphate-free, and doesn't contain bleach". You still need to wear gloves when cleaning the miniatures after they have soaked in it.
How does it work on resin parts? I have been using break fluid for cars to strip my paints. But for resin, it made it just soft and did not get hard again so had to throw it away.
I find it can make resin go a little rubbery, I have had a little success with very quick dips in and out though.
@@SnakeWorksStudio Okay thanks
Think i used the same brand of methylated spirits today ,sure beats dettol with the goop and smell!
The Bird brand? Yes Dettol is horrid stuff
@@SnakeWorksStudio Yes the good old bird brand!
the reply not working i do not know what have at the show but if have some like ues and the kits and minis need a striping i now know how do it just got what teel the show
How long until the show?
I use IPA, it’s as good as anything without the mess
I think its a similar product isn't it?
Penguins of Madagascar is the best one. The rest are okay. Thanks for the vid btw.
I shall try to watch it! I hope it helps
My current choice is "L.A's totally awesome " but i don't really have one i would say is best, i like using whatever that works. I don't know if anything called methylated Spirits exists in the US
It’s called de-natured alcohol in the US my friend.
I dont think meths is a million miles away from isopropyl. did I spell that right?
@@SnakeWorksStudio You did, but they have very different properties, iso is pure alcohol and probably a bit gentler, meths is ethanol + other ingredients, and a bit more aggressive. Certainly in the model world anyway.
Everyone loves bio strip and yes it does strip well but it’s the clean up process after that’s a pain. It leaves a horrid gloopy mess all over the model that’s hard to get off and gets stuck in all the recesses and crevices of the model that you just can’t get out
For real. It’s a pain to work with. Maybe I just use it wrong?
well thanks fore the tip me got find some the stuff and got have a bad exsues to ues it say an E BAY find but will tune in to nest vid
What are you going to be stripping?
A comparison would be nice to see. Haven't tried meths in an ultrasonic cleaner but I've seen comments about not putting isopropyl alcohol in them due to heat being generated and the potential for it to ignite.
Does it get that hot??
@@SnakeWorksStudio the one I have heats up slightly, probably not liquid ignition temperature but the lid probably doesn’t seal as well as your takeaway tub. I’d say chuck it in google and see what it turns up for meths.
More warm, I’ve done it countless times and never had an issue
Dont use the heater then its fine. Dont be a scaredy cat... Its not going to ignite 😅
But why? That was the chapter master of the Rainbow Warriors!
It was a chaos marine from The Blorbs and you know it!
Haha he needs to clean his eye lenses 👁️
I felt all ten minutes of this video.
A joyous feeling I hope?
@@SnakeWorksStudio Anxiously waiting to see if the mini got melted. I haven't had luck with stripping paint off Warhammer plastic in the past. Gonna have to give this weird purple juice a shot.
now I just need 20 litres of meths to get enough to clean the tyranid monsters I bought 2nd hand (thinking about trying the goopy stuff so I don't have to submerge them)
Are they all plastic? if so you should be fine.
@@SnakeWorksStudio yeah, it's more about the amount of stuff and the vessel I'd need to submerge stuff around the size of a tyrannofex
i gess two moth its i july at the lacater convention center in PA USA think the 19th is day i am going to go to con and if show up well say hay be guy with the hat full of pins
Nice. What con is it?
i think its calle historc con that ALLLLLL i know be fist time i go shud strd go years a go
Probably not a good idea using methylated spirit and a Sonic cleaner combo , Sonic cleaners get hot .
is it like Warm or HOT hot?
@@SnakeWorksStudio
It's warm like tea sat for 10mins , it's probably safe but bit risky to leave unattended would be my suggestion
Something push me to ask the comparative between bio strip and metilated…
We will do that next time! 🕰️
Isopropyl Alcohol or meths are both good for most paints
Are they similar products?
@@SnakeWorksStudio similar yes. Both are types of strong alcohol.
A great apologization
I hope I was forgiven!
go woke go broke, done with warhammer for the time being and any channel that promotes them unsubbed. sorry
It's okay, I counteracted your unsub with a sub, like, and a comment down below. :)

Thank you! you are very kind
