Removing Paint

[chiangrai]

I've done something stupid and left my motorbike too close to a wall that I was painting

and now it's got paint on it.

I was painting a wall with water based paint and a roller and didn't see the tiny

little dots of paint that were landing on my motorbike.

 

The dots are coming off  with my finger nail but it would take a days work to get them off that way.

I had it washed but the dots are still there.

 

Does any body have a solution to this problem.

Maybe there is a type of thinners that would do it.

Or a certain kind of shop that would take them off for me.

 

It was stupid I know but what's done is done...

Does any body know how to get out of this mess....

1st try alcohol from pharmacy or....

 then maybe acetone/fingernail polish remover.

Google search recommends clay bar

The alcohol helps but it's still slow.

 

I will get nail polish remover tomorrow and give it

a try.

 

Clay bar is cheap on eBay from china if all else fails.

Be careful with acetone (Nail varnish remover) as it may also remove the original paint.

 

I'd probably take it to a paint repair/respray shop. If they dont have clay bar they may use a fine cutting compound/paste. Shouldn't be too expensive....unless they see this as an opportunity for extra cash from a falang!

Get some regular car polish and use some elbow grease.

The nail varnish remover is working well.

 

I must be careful with all the different with all the different

types all surfaces.

The paint is on Fiberglass,metal,chrome and the vinayl

seat.

 

If all else fails I will go to the Spray shop.

 

Thanks for the help,guys.
