Does anyone know if the yellow dots on his trucks will come off with acetone? I can't stand that version and would love to change it, but don't want to ruin the figure.

Just paint over them. Its a lot easier and probably wouldnt risk any damage to the figure (as acetone tends to eat plastic)

I would stay away from acetone unless it is used in small amounts, removing tats and such!

My plan was to use a cotton swab on each dot. If that doesn't sound right, what type of paint should be used? Do I need to scuff it up before painting?

Use black acrylic paint (can be bought at Walmart or any craft store) and also buy a sealer. Brush on sealers are better and a lot less messy/sticky. I use Folk Art acrylic paint and Delta Ceramcoat Sealer. Both work perfectly. This isnt a real good pic but you can kinda get an idea...  |
