Not sure what to say really.
It's a bit thinner than washing up liquid, you pour some into a container, put what ever item you want into it, leave it for a while, take it out, run it under the tap and give it a bit of a brush with an old toothbrush and what ever it is comes out just as new.
I paint wee little minatures, or Toy Soldiers perhaps more accurately. Probably put 30-40 hours worth of wok into a single 28mm figure, so you can make a guess at the quality. When it gets messed up, I just bung them into the Green Stuff bowl and start again. Bit sore on the pride, but at least it looks good in the end.
Because I am some what of a skin flint, I keep re-using the stuff, so it lasts for ages. To completely clean up a 28mm minature, with 4-5 layers of paint, 3 layers of ink, a few filters and then spray varnish on it, it takes about 15 minutes + a wash under the tap, the paint just falls away.
I've not got the links and some pictures I took as they are sitting on one of my servers, and the servers are currently in a heap in the garage as yet not connected.
wait... let me have a dig about for a useful link....
EEK!!!
I am most stupid, and I apologize immensely. The stuff is called
SIMPLE GREEN ,
not Green Stuff. That's what you get for confusing paint stripper with epoxy modelling putty, which, if we're honest, is something we've all done a few times right?
A google search reveals that they now have a Co.Uk website. Price for a big bottle of the concentrated stuff when I brought it worked out at about £10, which isn't cheap, but having used it a number of times I think it's worth it.
I can't find the specific bottle that I ordered, but I am told buy a fellow painter that this stuff:

If in doubt, this is the dilute version of what I purchased from the US:

Not at all sure what's in it. It doesn't seem to be Acidic or basic though, as you can touch it with no ill effects.
