Changes to existing models

I learned today that the Blood Angels Codex really seems to suit my play style. So it looks like I'm gonna switch my Space Marine army over to Blood Angels when I can. I was wondering if anyone had any tips or tricks for stripping off old paint jobs and for "unglue-ing" limbs in order to fix some models weapons selections. Any info you can give will help; I'm totally in the dark on the subject. Thanks.

Not much help on the unglueing part. As far as taking paint off, I drop them in a bucket of simple green for a several days until the paint sloughs off. I then use a toothbrush to make sure all the paint comes out of the recesses.

Thanks. Oh I used just normal super glue btw; if that changes anything for any advice someone might give on pulling the models apart.

If you used super glue, then many of the same methods used to strip paint will also weaken the glued join. I use Castrol Super Clean. You need to wear gloves when you use it, but it's plastic safe and it will weaken super glue bonds.
