Simple Green removes enamel overspray!!!
Posted by cbaltrin on Monday, December 15, 2014 12:03 PM
I just got sloppy with a kit I was working on (NMF aircraft). I did some spraying with Testors black enamel and my masking was careless so got some noticeable black overspray on the fuselage. I was just going to wait until it dried then hit it wish some alclad to cover up my boo boo; they I had a thought to put some Simple Green on a bit of paper town and rub the area. The overspray came off! I am very happy.

Simple Green removed the enamel overspray because it was yet to cure.  Simple Green doesn't remove dried acrylic or enamel paint.

I use it or one of a few similar products for cleaning my airbrush bottles.

Mix it with equal parts of Windex and twice as much water and you have a great acrylic paint airbrush cleaner.
