Paint removal on clear plastic?

[sr20ser]

Yes, I have searched and searched. I need a little help trying to get some paint off of my 300z's windows.

I used Tamiya semi-gloss rattle can paint, and kinda screwed the masking job. I have let the stuff sit and be brushed in CSC for over two weeks with no result . I am kinda leary about brake fluid, but will it work?
I don't want anything to pit, stain, etc. my clear. Any help would be awsome.
Thanks,

your screwed.

just kidding get some isopropyl alcohol (make sure you get the highest percentage.. don't get 70% look for 91% or something like that)from the store and use it to buff the paint off the window. apply nice amt of alcohol to a soft washcloth and buff like you've never buffed before. it won't dull the window and should be able to cut the paint. if you try real hard this will work (i've done it) but its going to take patience.

you can try to use some paint thinner but it will dull the window severely. you can then go to the auto parts store and get clear plastic polish (meguire's mirror glaze etc..) and try to polish the haze out. this method isn't recommended though as the haze tends to come back unless you keep treating the clear plastic with the polish.

Oven cleaner will do the job on that mate! Just spray it on and leave for a while.
It just kinda rinses off after that!

Yeah, I agree with the above... just MAKE SURE that you dont use paint thinner.

I know this is a old thread, but I came up with something new today. I was painting the outline of the windshield on my Superstallion last night. (don't paint clear parts when your tired) anyway, the paint came out ugly. I started sanding with 1200 grit and worked up to 2000 grit. But being Sunday, the autoparts store wasn't open, so I couldn't get any polish. Now, I'm left with a VERY smooth, clean windshield that's very hazy. Well, my 2 year old happened to find a roll of clear tape and put it on EVERYTHING. He happened to get some on the windshield. Wherever the tape is became crystal clear. So, I washed the windshield, let it dry, and covered it with clear tape on both sides. CRYSTAL CLEAR, and no rubbing.

brake fluid is safe for clear parts, but prolly wont work for the paint you have on there... either way, it's safe... and it makes the clear parts more shiny than when you put them in
