Oh yea! I can’t believe I forgot this lol. You could have done a light concentration of acetone by mixing it 25% acetone and the rest with cold water. Works pretty well for removing paint. ---

The whole yoyo has a different texture. Yoyospirit, I ended up using Gum Spirits, I let it soak overnight, no effect on the plastic. The other “spirits” I had said they are not recommended on most material and are NOT used to remove grease or clean car fenders. When I saw the Car fender and grease removal I assumed it wouldn’t affect the plastic, I was right. Right now I am trying to remove the paint from the cracks and on the inside. ---

And some mods, depends on what it is! Hey, just a heads up, but i suggest you get more forum feedback and a little more practice before giving a modding service. Im just saying, some of them look really neat and professional and some look like spray paint and sharpie. Im not saying your not trustworthy, but people have there suspicions. No one wants to get theiryoyoscrewed up, and im sure you dont want to end up paying for a replacement. Good luck though! ---

I have not used a Sharpie. I use a paint I bought. So far the recent jobs I’ve done have gotten good feedback. The first ones I did were crappy. But I’ve improved :). I only do plastic yo-yos. If I messes it up I can fix it. My paint is durable yet I have some things that can easily remove it without harming plastic. ---

Right under your username, there is a trade count. Othe rmembers who have traded with you can give you feedback, positive, neutral, or negative by visiting your profile. I have 18, which means i have either sold, traded, or bought 18 yoyos from people on this forum. ---
