Overspray Removal
How do you remove oversprays on rubber trims around windows?
We tried APC, plastic razor blade, clay, etc. None seems to work. Is there a specail trick?
Thank you.

What to use will depend on what type of overspray it is.
If the overspray is from highway traffic line painting or from painting a bridge or commercial building, toluene may be useful to remove it.
However, be careful. Toluene, like gasoline, has a high reid vapor pressure (evaporates quickly) and is very flammable. If you breathe in too much of the vapors, things will appear to look very small. Toluene is also tough on rubber. So, use only as much as is needed to do the job.
It the overspray is automotive paint, use the reducer that is recommended to dilute the type of paint.
