That is something I would also like to know.

That custom looks sweet! I really like the detail from the blue, red, & gold paints on the underside of the panels showing through of the roof! -And then in car-mode, seeing all the interior bits! Sweet idea!
is that so? i never owned (nor planned to buy) a Swindle as the aesthetic is not for me so i don't know about this. but now that you mentioned this, i assume that it's going to be an easy job with extra-strength alcohol or acetone to strip away the paint. thanks!

Swindle is one awesome figure looks great in both modes as well he has articulation like an alternator and I like the one eyed bot look
DO NOT EVER USE acetone AKA the plastic killer, when I need something stronger than alcohol I will use NON acetone nail polish remover which is what I used on swindles doors and roof...

do they melt the plastic somewhat?

YES acetone very bad for for plastic it will melt and or make plastics brittle...
acetone not made for plastics more of a metal cleaner.
