freddy333 Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 The two thoughts that come to mind are carefully scraping print off with a pin (if you want to remove the print, but leave the background color) or just spray the entire dial face with paint remover (if you want to remove everything). If you plan to match the same colors, I would find the correct paint colors before you do anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evildee Posted May 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 Hmm, I was thinking of using finger nail polish remover. I was wondering if it would mess up the face.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ximenes Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 I don't believe this is possible without having to repaint the whole dial, you've got paint on paint. I'd be resolved to repaint the whole thing. In any case I'd (first) try to remove the white lettering with "Goof Off."..... Probably won't work. Or you could try to match the original black paint, and mask off the area, and spray over the lettering you want removed. Or forget removing it altogether and apply a black magic marker to the lettering.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkarpas Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 try using water and a cloth, some dials are painted with this kind of paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
