:o I can't help you there; sorry!

Looks like you're already learning the hard way... Don't forget to post your "tips" in the "Hard Way" thread at the top of the forum.

Good luck...

well im not sure wat kind of paint you were using, but i remember when i was painting the black trim around the windows with some acrylic paint, i accidently oversprayed onto the body. so i started rubbing the oversprayed parts with rubbing alcohol on a q-tip. the problem was that it didnt just remove the acrylic, the enamel paint on the car started to slowly come off as well.

hehe... well my point is i dont know if rubbing the area with alcohol will harm the decal or remove the paint, but it did a fair job of removing the paint on my car

You can use [ img] tags in your signature. Put "[ img]" in front of the URL and "[/img]" after it. PM me if you need more help.

Nope, you won't shift that! Only if you lacquered the decals first will you have a fighting chance!!!
