Denatured alcohol. Rubber gloves. Patience. Finish with 303 Aerospcae. Adds about 3 HP.

Correct. (Not sure about the power gain...forgot to do a before and after dyno run.)

Lacquer thinner is nasty stuff and will react badly with just about any plastic of vinyl it contacts.

+1 on the cover-up stickers. You have to look really closely to even see that they are there. The downside is that you only get a 1 or 2 hp gain with the stickers.
