Overspray on stove

Apr 12, 2017 12 Replies

I am trying to remove over spray from the outside of my stove.



The over spray is the same color as the wall behind it.



What can I use ?



I have tried paint thinner and xylene.


Thanks, Andy


A scrubbing pad, or a razor blade.

Have you personally use these ?

Thanks, Andy

I tried the scrubbing pad.

No help.

Razor blade might work if I was a surgeon which I am not. :-)

Yes - but not for getting overspray off a stove. John T.

Overspray of what? Paint? What type? Oil base, latex, etc. Answers will help suggested application for removal.

Andy was thinking very hard :

Try acetone.

Why bother asking if the guy doesn't have the brains to put it in his OP.

Just tell him to hit it with his hand-held belt sander.

Brush first, finish with the sander. Then hose it down real good- especially if it's an electric stove.

I do not what the overspray is.

I live in an apt.

It may be latex paint.

Consider trying a razor blade--with care of course.
