Default Foam cleanner

Guys,

Is there any way to remove a dry epoxy from a foam wing without scratching it or removing the painting?
I assembled a SU-34 from HL and made a not so good work when joining the wing to the fuselage, and left some epoxy in a shinny strip on the wing root.
It`s not matching the opaque finishing from the plane.

I think I know the answer, but would like to hear from you guys.

Chears!

Removing the epoxy? No. If the shiney look is what you don't like, spray paint with flat clear to minimize the look.

Thanks Jim,

Nice clue!
I`m going to try that.
Do you know if Top Flite LustreKote is going to work?
I`m just thinking about which kind of lacquer I can securely use on the foam.

Cheers
