Cleaning paint from 46-420 bakelite case
#5

Bakelite is resistant to solvent paint remover but not a caustic paint remover. Some Bakelite will be O.K. with oven cleaner lye. But I would not use it.

Never clean Bakelite with Windex, 409 or other "super" household cleaners. They can remove the top surface and permanently leave the finish dull.

Mechanically removing the paint has risks...  chas
