I'd stick a proper base under those bottle caps so a TO can tell its a legit base size without pissing about.

Quick Question about your paint striping Video, Does that work with Plastic, Metal and Resin models?

From expiriance, it works on plastic however I would avoid using it on resin, I tried to strip paint off an old necron criptek staff and after a day, it became extremely soft and ultimately useless. The brand I use is Trak Super Brake Fluid and it could very well be that it is too strong and another brand will work fine but I will not be using this method on resin from now on. Also I would have no doubt it would be effective on metal minis.

Cool. thanks. I am getting a Space Hulk Libby off Ebay I want to strip. If I recall right they are made from a Hard Plastic. but good to know when looking at other things to order.
