Hey everyone, Need some help, I was doing a little brushup paint on my piller where I have a gauge, thing is im dumb, so I didnt cover the dash, speckled a little paint on the dash, I cant seem to get it off, I know you guys have a way to clean it without touching up the actual dash with paint. Heres a pic kinda blurry but you can see what im talking about.

Try using rubbing achool, if it hasn`t harden it should come off, if it doesn`t you will have to use something stronger like laquer thinner and pass a wet rag over right after it.

Try shellac solvent, if that doesn`t work, mineral spirits, and lacquer thinner as a last resort. If the dash has ever been dressed, shellac solvent should remove it without discoloration.

Thanks, the paint has been on there for a while now, and the dash has been dressed, do you guys know where to get mineral spirits, can I get it in a local store or pretty much just online?

Your local paint supplier should stock the item.
