Removing Small Oversprays


It never fails - You can be careful with your masking, but paint can still find a
way to the surface.

You could scrape it with a knife blade, but that would leave a divot in the paint and dull the sheen.




After the paint has thoroughly dried, I use a white eraser to remove the bulk of the black over spray. Use a white eraser, a pink eraser on the back end of a pencil will transfer pink color onto the finish.
Be sure your white eraser is clean! Rub the eraser on your pant leg to remove any gray pencil residue.




After using the eraser, the surface will be dulled and there still may be a few stubborn specs of paint.
Follow up with polishing compound to remove any remaining marks and return the surface to a gloss finish.
