Some time ago there were some great responses on how to remove overspray

from the windows.  At the time I was scoffing the idea and didn't save what

would now be some extremely valuable information.  Any reposting, or at

least the proper search words (no luck on my part), would be deeply

appreciated.



Thanks,

Marcus

get all the Gucci panels programmed I'll be in business.

I have it on fairly good authority that acetone can remove overspray from

the windows without leaving any marks or damaging the plexi.  Other than

that, MicroMesh from Spruce for PolyCarb should do the trick, but is very

labor-intensive.

I think I was the one, Marcus, who put out that post you're thinking

of.   I've now had the occasion on 2 planes, at 2 times, to use

a product called "scratch off".

I even took the time to swing by and thank them again at OSH because

it truly is a fantastic kit.  I had overspray and scratching on

an old plane since I bought it, and it cleaned up the windows

great.  Then, I got paint overspray under the tape on my -10 and

it took all of that off and polished them up good.  You won't

be disappointed if you use as directed.  Very nice, and doesn't

really take a lot of work or time.  I only used I think the

2 finest grits on the -10, or worst case I used 3 of the 4.

You just use an electric drill and it takes almost no time.

Hi,



A product I had recommended to me by an A&P was DuPont's PrepSol ("5

Star" brand has the similar product called Wax and Grease Remover.) It

should be available in the local car paint shop in quarts and gallons. I

used it on a Cessna to clean some overspray off and it worked well

without harming the Plexiglas. I have not used it on Van's windows so if

you go this way try it on a scrap first.
