It's my belief that what was left over was held back . Whenever our government decided that Iran not coming back , they used it as if it as ours. Cheers, Christian

Depot came to Ramstein sometimes around 78/79 to change out a wing . Supposedly the last wing that was made for Iran and held back . They claimed the internal wing tanks were very different. I don't recall a belly strap . If it was internal , it does not matter as you can't see it. Also some stabs had the internal bracing if they had been rebuilt . I'm guessing that means at depot. The only Iranian F-4 I saw ( At McDill ) was before end of 1976 . Not sure if they got anymore after that . Regards, Christian

Commercial lacquer thinner ( lowes or Home depot) will work. Mr.color leveling thinner and Tamiya lacquer thinner should also do the job

Dilute a portion of it with water till you get the desired strength ?

Unscrew the tip and toss it in some acetone for a bit and it will be good as new in a bit . You can purchase the acetone at the beauty shop . Place a piece of Scotch tape on the super glue bottle in the meanwhile and it'll be fine . Cheers, Christian
