Hello,

Used some Contact Cement on some painted wood pieces, but guess some of
it leaked out or migrated from the joint.

Boy, that stuff is tenacious and tough.
Tried a razor blade, but no luck with.

Is there any common solvent that will allow me to clean up the leaked
part, that will not effect the wooden painted surface underneath ?

Thanks,
Bob

Good advice but first check if paint is resistant to mineral spirits or
acetone. One or both may damage it.

Start with the solvent listed on the label. Most "contact cements"
use acetone, but no rules govern what may be marketed as a
contact cement.

Yep


I'd probably just rough up the cement a bit and paint to match

Probably not. Acetone or MEK will work on the cement but either one tends to
be a good paint stripper too.

We used a mixture of lacquer thinner and naphtha in the cabinet shop - but
the LT will dissolve latex paints . Plain naphtha will soften the glue and
it will ballup as you rub . Should be safe for the paint unless it's
recently been painted with latex .

Paint thinner. Probably naptha (lighter fluid) too.
