Re: Heavy Paint Overspray Removal - Toyota 4Runner
Great job David!!
I have seen this so many times in the past... Is it really that hard to cover the car or move it out of the way when painting? Idiots!!
Nice technique!! Overspray can be a real PITA sometimes.

Re: Heavy Paint Overspray Removal - Toyota 4Runner
You really have to wonder what goes through the heads of painters that could be some dumb to do something like this??? 
Awesome save David! Those jobs are a LOT of work, but when done successfully they make awesome before and after write ups!

Re: Heavy Paint Overspray Removal - Toyota 4Runner
Excellent work, David. One of the best saves I've seen on here!
Kudos! It has already been asked, but how long did this take?

Re: Heavy Paint Overspray Removal - Toyota 4Runner
Lovely save, Dave! I know how that can be a PITA to remove once it's been sitting for so long.
Why do I think of the song Master of Puppets when I look at this picture?
  Nice work again, man!

Re: Heavy Paint Overspray Removal - Toyota 4Runner
Wow, great work. What did the owner's say afterwards? And maybe I missed it, but how long did the entire job take?

Re: Heavy Paint Overspray Removal - Toyota 4Runner
Very nice turn around! I know first-hand how hard it is to remove overspray, but the stuff I had to remove was acrylic laquer used to repaint silver rims...cured about 6 months on a black car in direct sunlight for pretty much the entire time. I couldn't get it off quickly, so I just used compound on a compound pad and took my time with the rotary and it all came off.
I applaud your work on this.

Re: Heavy Paint Overspray Removal - Toyota 4Runner
^ +1
thats a HUGE turn around and i'm sure the owners are STOKED at having their 4runner look better than when they bought it. Looks like a long annoying job, but the APC soak sounds like a good idea - i might have to borrow that one for future reference
