the car got over spray on both mirrors from previous owner. i want to know what is the safe and best way to get rid of these over spray. thanks in advance.

by the way i have an em1, i can easily pop out the mirrors right??


sorry the car need a car wash..

 

A razor blade or utility knife blade.

I use one to remove the sticker from my windshield after every auto-x.

Be certain to lay the sharp edge flat against the glass, and scrape away.

 

isnt there some kind of chemicals out there that will do the same job? i might try the razor if i dont get an answer soon. the thought of it is kind of scary. but thanks anyway

 

razor will work fine but as far as chemicals....

maybe some kind of glass polish or goo gone

 

if the paint has already dried / cured, then goo gone won't work.

Not sure why anyone would be afraid of a razor blade. Its also how I clean my glass top stove. Over 6 years, never once scratched it.

Just don't be an idiot and try and use the corner...

Go buy a razor blade scraper like such:

 

cool thanks, i got some razor from art class. first time can be scary

 

you can use nail polish remover just make sure you dont get any on the paint though. just wipe it off and it comes off like magic!!!

 

i always have good luck getting overspray off glass with clay bar and 50/50 alcohol

 

I use mother's chrome/mag polish when it's glass, but otherwise just a scraper.

 

get a bottle of fast orange hand cleaner at autozone for like 3 bucks.takes a little pressure but gets it off even after its cured.i used it on my friends lazy taping job(sunroof)it worked great

 

great thanks

 

steel wool

 

take out the glass and use paint thinner this happen to me before and it works great then use some windex
