An old jam-jar with a lid ?
Just a thought.

Now I just look silly.
I was thinking more along the lines of holding a fig in one hand, a quick spray, brush off then pick up another without having to unscrew a jar every time.
There's method in the madness

You just want to inhale minute droplets of acetone, don't you Ry ?

I expect you know this but a word of warning that acetone is extremely flammable.

I've been rumbled!
To top it off albie comes along with the fire hazard line and spoils my plans to smoke it.

Well that was a disappointment. With the subject "of stripping figs", I thought ...

FSN - Sir ! you are a pervert 

BUT

That was my thought too when I eagerly opened the post 

Remember Perversion only starts where normality ends - Its up to you to draw the line

Just got the electric tootbrush out, dipping it in nail varnish remover and placing it on the fig is even better than before! 

Now off to ebay to look for badly painted figs going for peanuts that I can repaint and flog. mwah ha ha, world domination pending

There are other more interesting uses for an electric toothbrush - somI have been told

Well worth pointing out Albie....EXTREMELY flammable.

To chime in:

Acetone/White Spirit for MEtal ONLY.
For safety reasons try Isopropanol first.

Useful tips, thanks for sharing.

Nitromorse every time!

Own brand Dettol for me.  Pack the minis into a jam jar just big enough for them and fill almost to the top with Dettol.  Screw the lid on tight and put it somewhere away from kids (this stuff is evil).  I place mine in the downstairs toilet and give it a spin everytime...well you know.

Give it a week or so and then go at them with a toothbrush under a running tap.  WEAR RUBBER GLOVES unless you're planning a bank job cos you'll remove your fingertips too.

Managed to take paint someone had spilled on their floor with it too!  (for god's sake test a small patch first  )

Giving this method a go, only with Lidl W5 multi-purpose cleaner because it's what I had to had.

Seems to be doing the trick and doesn't seem to have effected the super-glue holding one of the figures on a base either yet.

Cheers!
