Default Removing paint stain

The stain is not from the blue tape.
What happened is when i was cutting in i accidently painted past the
tape & i immediately wiped the excess paint off with a dampened paper
towel .
I probally didn"t get it all off completely ,after it dried & i removed
the tape i see a light of coat that was left on the ceiling & now that
it is dry can i get it off ?


It's possible that you can wash off the newer paint without harming the
old paint underneath....if the new paint has not "cured". Hot water and
some Formula 409 has worked for me. Need to be very careful, but if it
is a small area it will likely work.
