Removing paint from windshield

Just wondering how to do this without having to re-do the whole windshield. The mask didn't hold and leaked a little line onto the window. It's acrylic paint...any help is appreciated!

Try ammonia or alcohol,both will remove paint and do no harm to clear plastic.

You can use a razor blade on your glass windshield. I replaced the slider window in my chevy pu and got some of the urethane where I was not supposed to and used a razor blade to take of the excess.

Tamiya rubbing compund or auto polish such as Autoglym Paint Renovator, Autoglym Resin Polish or T-cut. A minute amount on a cotton bub will enable you to remove the paint that leaked with enough control so as not to remove the paint you want to remain.

Alternatively, a cocktail stick dipped in acrylic thinner also works if your careful!

Takes less effort to drop it in some CSC overnight, then remask and paint. Well, maybe equal effort as the above methods.
