Dismantling a Prebuilt Styrene Kit

Post by Valkyrie Alpha »

Alright, so I've got this model of the U.S.S. Defiant that I built when I was just a youngster and I want to take her back down and rebuild her right. Is there a solution or something that I can apply to the glued parts to get them apart again? Thanks for any help.
