Paint Remover

Alright, so my buddy had this stuff when he was younger that he claims would do magick for my model I'm working on right now. The problem is, he can't remember what it was called, or who made it. He says that its purpose was to remove paint from plastic without damaging the part in any way. So if you were to dip a clear piece in this solution, it wouldn't fog it up. He says it came in a quarter gallon frosted clear jar. Any help in what this stuff is called would be amazing, or anything like it.

Actually, plain old brake fluid is often recommended for stripping paint. There was a paint stripper from Poll-S (I think), and the old Aeromaster paints had a great stripper.

There's a whole thread about it in Finishing.

the polly-s product was called easy lift off and it works very well.
purple power does a good job too. and castrols superclean.

It doesn't come in a frosted jar, but I use Strip-A-Kit
It doesn't stink, all biodegradable etc... Nice stuff to use. I've even used it to remove Alclad 2
