Cleaning Paint off Extractor Hood and Sink

Oct 18, 2007 3 Replies

I've just finished painting my kitchen, and was a bit messy. There are small specs of paint on the extractor hood and on the stainless steel sink. Apart from elbow grease is there a quicker and easier way of cleaning this up??



If latex, it will come off with hot, soapy water and a little scrubbing. What is an "extractor hood"?

Oil paint: Dampen a rag with a little kerosene Water-based paint: Dampen a rag with household ammonia

A thumbnail will likely remove the paint without scratching the surface. Do it soon -- the task will only get harder as the paint cures.
