Any tips on stripping dummies? I would really like to re-use them. I have one that is covered in fondant and then has fondant details attached (I used water).

I wrap dummies in saran wrap first, makes it really easy to remove the fondant later.

I have reused my dummies several times and I use Glade Press-n-Seal. It works great though finding the right way to put it on without leaving any wrinkles was trial and error icon_redface.gif
I found it best to cut pieces to fit the tops(and bottoms if your going to attach it to a stand) and then do the sides is easiest way for me. When I'm all done with them I just lift them off the stand and peel from the bottom. I make sure some of the sides overlap enough to grab and peal off.
Hope that helps!
