How to get Compound out of Panel Lines??

What are some tricks you guys use to get it out of the panel lines on your cars? I Just wash the whole body but maybe someone has an easier idea???

I remeber, I think someone said Q-tip or a tooth pick ? :confused:

I use a sharpened toothpick.

I usually use toothpick

old soft toothbrush and soap under warm water.

For those who use a toothpick, when i tried this the paint in the panel lines came off, and some compound gets left behind on the body is this what happens to you guys as well?

I get all the compound out before I do panel lines.

I meant like if i painted the car yellow the yellow in the panel lines would come off when i used the toothpick, sorry if i was a bit confusing.

Like it's chipping off? :confused:

Almost like that. It only happened on my R34 though and thats the 1st car i ever tried compound on, and when it came to my suby im doing now I just washed it off.

If the toothpick doesn't work, I usually use a soft toothbrush (used toothbrush...) with soap water to get to the difficult parts. I never chip the paint when I use toothpick.

Water should just wash it away. Dont use tooth picks, you might scrap off the paint, like it happend to me an hour ago, have to repaint the body neway :p

Moisten the toothpick to soften the tip, and also wet the panel line with water.

Wet Cotton Swab will do the trick

I leave the compound to dry really well (30 minutes), then lighty run a toothpick around the lines. It just comes of like a powder

i use the corner of an index card or something similar.

If you remain compound in the lines, you're using too much. It's not expensive but you can save more. :p

Anyway, I use toothbrush.
