How do I remove vinyl paint from plastic rear window?

Post by MikeHynes »

I have an '80 Spider 2000 that has a nice top on it but it has some vinyl paint on the otherwise clear plastic rear window. Apparently the PO painted the rear seat, then put the top down before the paint was totally dry.
Has anyone been able to find a way to get this paint off without ruining the nice clear plastic window?

try some light polish or clay bar in a corner first to see if that works.

I have a plastic polish from Griot's garage that will remove paint specks. I use it on a buffer.
