I've found a way to confine ELO and possibly other solvents to a specific area. In my case I wanted to remove markings on a curved surface without the fluid flowing away, but the trick is also useful if you want to remove a specific marking without disturbing others nearby. What you do is cut a piece of toilet paper so it's just large enough to cover the lettering you wish to remove, place it on the model, then let the fluid soak into it. I repeatedly used a Q-Tip to transfer the fluid, and pressed it into the TP until I could clearly see all the letters underneath. After letting the markings soak for a few minutes, I removed the toilet paper and the lettering came off with very little pressure. Adjacent letters / numbers aren't affected because the toilet paper didn't touch them, and neither did the soaked Q-Tips. ![]()
