It's a citrus based solvent that shouldn't damage the vinyl and is milder than a petroleum based paint stripper.
Hope it helps.
And post some more progress pics.

Thats the stuff.

Thank you- you may have saved some vintage art from a fate similar to turpentine..
Going to take this easy, rationally, and cheaply. Saving money here to indulge in the proper thing there, etcetera. should be fun.. As long as I remember it's all voluntary and can make a nice pile of firewood if necessary I should do ok.
kayoteq:
details? even boring ones? Okay..
Victim #2: Common 80's Hitachi television with analog tuner, channel 3 and video-modulator thingy from x-box. proper size, now the dissection and removal of un-needed parts and accessories. I know a digital unit would have less junk, but this is on-hand unused television. Then again.. well, anyhow, it was a proof of concept. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v697/kayoteq/banN2/6_t.jpg to view the exciting photo of a 80's television on its side running Centipede sideways. wow.
quality? I know. modulation/ demodulation signal loss.. imo, it makes it look nice and used, not purty. Okay, I'll try to hook it up more direct so it's in focus more at least..
tommy:
It looks like a good starting point, good luck.
kayoteq:
luck? I'd say.. if this thing hadn't been painted, it would have been gone before I got to it :)
Only damage is what I did :( before I found a more perfect spatula.
