OT: paint removal

DONT USE THE PAN SCRUBBER !!!!!!

Try t-cut...if the paint is still relatively fresh it shouldnt really have too much of a problem getting it off (but just to be sure try in a small area first, just in case it isnt spray paint)

I've used Duraglit (brasso) for this purpose many times (on my cars, not my battlewagon!). Try on a small area first.

You can get T-cut with colour in it. Bruce used some on the Discovery after one of the kids found a red touch-up pen(for the Volvo we had had previously) and wrote their name on the door just under the wing mirror.

Well kept secret - like baby wipes to clean leather seats ;-)

I removed felt pen graff from Grumble with Acetone...

How would I approach it with said brasso? aside from carefully as it would appear it removes paint...

I'm just off to the shop to get some.......

Reading this in 'alt.fan.landrover'? Did you know there's a group FAQ:

There should be a FAQ with all these useful ideas gathered together.

Mark,

It won't go below the original paintwork, it will remove the stuff on top of it (quite clever. It's due to the way it is abrassive, but not course. Very clever, and can also be used to remove overspray ;-)

Glad I could help! You at Billing?

Posh Ted is going to be there, and raising money *in style*

I'm a fan of posh ted though

Aren't ost spray cans still cellulose paint, while factory paints are something else. So the right solvent should get it off.

Get some Farracla, G10 or similar fine grade. It's like T-Cut but it works much better.

Hehe,

For my sins, I am in Northampton, Tim (muddyweb) is in Dorset, and Darren (Datalas) is in Southampton....that covers the sponsors of Posh Ted who are not AFL ;-)

Tim lives near there ;-)
