Cleaning overspray
http://www.mwdropbox.com/dropbox/Garys-countertop.jpg
http://www.mwdropbox.com/dropbox/Garys-Tub.jpg My sister, who is NOT gonna be mistaken for a rocket scientist in this life, has managed to spray paint the bathroom countertop and tub with overspray, to the point that replacement will be necessary if cleaning is not possible. Tub & counter, not sister, sadly. ANY suggestions gratefully considered, even if just for humor value Which I am in dire need of, as she also managed to spread considerable overspray around the garage, i.e. tool cabinet, welding cabinet, and welder, table, etc. thanks --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |

This assumes the paint thinner will not damage the article. Best if done before the paint cures completely. Also best if not a large area, but it is too late to change that. Dan |

P.S: THE SOONER, THE BETTER, so let her wait. evil grinne ANY suggestions gratefully considered, even if just for humor value Which I am in dire need of, as she also managed to spread considerable overspray around the garage, i.e. tool cabinet, welding cabinet, and welder, table, etc. Use a blue wrench on that, ya mutt. -- That's the thing about needs.
