Default Re: Free cargo boxes....

Finally...

Got some time to work on the boxes, pulling the labels and removing the adhesive. Advice: use ronson liquid lighter fluid, and dried-out wipes, or small j-cloth scraps (kleenex is too flimsy) Apply the fluid to the cloth, dampen the adhesive, and wipe as much as ytou can off. Repeat until the surfac e is clean. The box ink won't run, and if you're good, it only takes 2 or 3 scraps to get a box clean of adhesive.

You can always print a ~scale~ shipping label to go in that spot if you do not want to attempt this method.

I also thought - and please chime in you you agree - that some of us might pay for un-used boxes straight from Packaging. Cat would get free advertising (we can post to TamiyaUSA) and they could even sell 'em for use with their own toys (or mebbe make a deal with Bruder, hm?)

Just thinking outside the 'figurative' box, eh?
