I got a little bit of overspray on my new fg beetle body where the masking tape had a small crease in it. What can I use to remove it that would be safe for lexan/polycarbonate?

denatured alcohol....it might be stubborn to get the paint off with but it won't ruin the lexan

i pull the hair off the end of a q-tip and go over the bleed thru areas with some alcohal. also you can use a black sharpe marker to outline the windows for a sharper transition between colors and such.

Already have it painted huh? I just ordered the paint for mine. Local hobby shops didn't have any of the colors I needed (looking for Tamiya polycarb spray). Post some pics when it's done.
