how to fix black "trim paint" bleeding under window mask via bubble?

[username]

what is the best method to get the black out of the window area and still have the window look clear. I am planing to chrome them when the rest of the paint is done.

I have just a couple spots where it ran and it looks bad.

I've never done it, but people use toothpicks to scrape paint in areas such as what you're talking about.

I've always just lightly scored the paint with a knife (and not the body) and removed the drip with a toothpick.

Your milage will vary

I've had some luck with a mild nail polish remover. But try it out on a scrap peice of lexan first, some nail polish removers cloud the lexan.

g stealer has a good technique for those small minor bleeds, however my concern would be the chrome, that needs an ultra smooth surface to stick too, thats what gives it the finish, when you etch the plastic through chemical or physical process the chrome will not have the uniform shine across that mark (bleed)

so either paint it aluminum colored wont show the mark or be really lucky and get the bleed off with that toothpick

oh and thumb/index finger nails work really well too

Q tip and denatured alcohol or a toothpick.

Wooden toothpick. You can scrape the paint off down to the fine edge you need without scratching the lexan body. I've never had to take it any further than that because it's always worked perfectly. Give that a try first, because I suppose it might not work with certain paints.
