[QUOTE="Rob Timmerman, post: 41778, member: 172"] Re: Case painting ? +1 Acetone will readily dissolve ABS (the plastic typically used on roadcase laminates), to the point that you can almost solvent-weld with it. So will most other organic solvents (I've solvent-welded ABS with the Goof-off previously mentioned). While you can remove inked-on logos from ABS with acetone, you will end up melting off the texture of the laminate. Better to paint over the logos, or try a non-solvent paint stripper.
