New Mazda 6

[Steve323]

I got a mazda 6 body yesterday for my birthday. This is my first body and I think I messed it up. Im planning to paint it all red with a black trim on the bottom. So I masked it up and applied the black. After I took the tape off I realized to my horror that the black had bled through. Its not too bad, but I still want to get rid of it. Is there any ways to get paint off? Will paint thinner work on lexan bodys? Im using pactra spray cans. Im gonna post some pics in a few minutes also.

you may want to try denatured alcahol.

already tried :( didnt work. Would paint thinner be okay for the body?

brake fluid, cotton swabs, and time. :D

you could run a new mask with tape a little higher than the current black line. Paint in very light coats, you probably sprayed it on too thick and it crept under the masking tape. Also, when you put the tape on, run your finger nail along all the edges to make sure it is tight to the lexan. REMEMBER: spray in light coats, let it dry or nearly dry then another light coat.

Good luck
