Do not substitute one for the other without explicit product guidance. Match thinner to the paint system, and check a remover against the coating and model material before use.

Those are different tasks. A product described as enamel thinner should not automatically be treated as a general-purpose stripper, and a remover should not be added to paint unless its instructions explicitly permit that use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor restoration work, identify the model material and any clear parts, glued joints or details that may be exposed. Test a hidden area and use the remover according to its specific instructions.
