Does anyone have a tested method for removing paint from the fresh air inlet box? Ours had quite a bit of overspray on it. I tried:
* Acetone (had done great on everything else) * Goo-gone * Goof-off graffiti Ultimately made it way worse. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I must have been very embarrassed by the result, as I didn't even take a picture. I'm not sure what this box is made of that is making this so problematic. Thanks. |

use some red rubbing compound and polish it off. The stuff is made for cutting down old oxidized paint.
