Advice on Removing/Cleaning Paint Splatter from Door Panel?
Got these power door panels off of eBay from Lithuania. From a EDM Civic, I really like the fact they don't have door mounted tweeters like the USDM version
Any ideas are welcome. I mostly just don't want to try something stupid to remove that stray paint and end up damaging the panels further. I'm willing to take them to an upholstery shop if needed, just want them clean.

Any ideas? It's a pretty small amount of paint, hoping I can get this cleaned up.
Panels like this are hard AF to find now.

Warm soap and water and a brush?
Goo gone?
If all else fails, some acetone on a clean towel will surely work.

Not sure about goo gone, but I'd be really worried about acetone chemically burning the leather and fading it. I know rubbing alcohol will do that.
Good advice, thanks man. I'll try the soft stuff first to see if it gets me anywhere. Just a bit paranoid about messing things up worse lol.

Yea, the acetone would be a last resort method. Depending on how much you add to the towel, it may not burn it, maybe some discoloration that could be restored.
A tooth brush and warm water won't harm the panel.
Maybe some rubbing compound will get it off.
