Congratulations Gary.
Unfortunately I don't have experience with Stags ( or their commission
plates ), but on early Spitfires I've used nail polish remover on cotton
wool ( and thinners ) without problems .
Careful use of a heat gun is another option .
Don't tell my wife that I used her nail polish remover or she might use the
heat gun on me :-)
Kind regards

Subject: Commission plate overspray removal
To all list paint experts
I have recently acquired a Stag that has been poorly resprayed. The
commission plate attached to the left hand side b-post was not removed when
the car was resprayed so it is now a nice red. The car's commission no and
paint and trim codes are still visible but I would like to be able to return
the plate to its original state with the black painted details on it. Sure
thinners will remove the red oversprayed paint but I am worried that it will
also remove the original black paint on the plate.
Any suggestions on how best to get this right except for buying a new
commission plate?
Thanks
Gary
