  • How to remove overspray [wood stain]

    Hi, Well did a stupid thing, since its been cold and rainy, I put my 92 Katana in the garage and covered it with a tarp. Well long story short. I was staining and precutting some crown moulding for I job I was doing with spray stain [brown] and clear urethene. Well, I didn't realize the tarp had gotten blown off the bike, so now I have brown spots and urethene all over the bike. HELP! Is there any way to remove the overspray and save the original finish, which is red and was still in good condition.
    I know I am a DUMB%$$ hope someone has an idea?
    Thanks, Mike

      I once got an e-mail on all the uses for WD40......... if you have some lying around, try to see if it works.

        Light paint buffing and polish should help on the shiny painted surfaces.

            Just spray it on the rest of the bike to match!

              This is what you do because this happened to me also. They painted the outside of our building at work and didnt realize spraying paint in the wind was a bad idea. Needless to say, all 25 cars in the parking lot were speckled white at the end of the day. Lucky I only had to clean up 3 company cars and my own. I cleaned up 5 others, but I got paid $150 each so they dont count.

              --First thing to do it try a cleaner wax. This has a little bit of grit to it and will someone be enough to take off the dirt and it wont hurt your paint.

              --If that doesnt work, go to Autozone and buy a Claybar kit. Mcquires and Mothers sells them, normally around $30. Follow the directions and I gaurantee this will take off all the spots and not hurt the paint. Throw a coat of wax on afterwards so seal the paint. Your paint will probaly look better than it has even looked before.
