Paint Removal Help


Recommended Posts

How do I remove emulsion paint from plastic surfaces, I have got some on some bits like trunking and sockets and would like to know the best way to clean it off without spending hours scraping and causing more mess, are there any removal wipes or solvents I can put on a cloth and just wipe it off?

Use a stanley blade out of its holder and gently scrape it off.

Once it goes solid, you won't be able to dissolve it off. The drying process changes the paint chemically.

 

Your best bet is to scrape it off carefully. When you next paint, carry a damp cloth with you and wipe it off before it dries.
