Hey guys and gals,

I have some bad nitro fuel and I was wondering if it has any uses or should I just throw it out?
 
I Used my old fuel to soak old hand painted models in, it softens and removes the paint. It works on some enamels and acrylics, and r/c body paint.

Other uses include washing out air filters and softening dirt/debris for easy removal.
 
You could always dab a little on for cologne. You never know, you might find a woman who shares your intrests.:hehe:
 
Actually.................nitro fuel doesn't burn your skin.

I use it to wash all the oil and crud off my hands after a long wrenching session on my diffs, clutch, etc etc then wash off with soap and water. Gets rid of the oils pretty quickly cos its part oil based anyways. Same as using WD40 to clean your hands, then washing them with soap and water afterwards.

Another trick is to use dish soap and sugar to get oil and crud off your hands.
 
if it dont burn your skin how come if u spill some on yur pants it start to sting like mad? (mabe I'm just an emo freak and have cuts all over me) lol xD:first_place:
