Another neighbor wants me to detail her vehicle. It's a 2000+ Ford Expedition. She has some white scuffed paint on her drivers side mirror from her hitting the side of her garage. How to I take the white paint off the black plastic housing of the mirror?
 
I have never tried it, but Mineral spirits should work and I don't think it will harm the plastic...



May want to wait and see if someone else chimes in.
 
Is the mirror painted or just black plastic? If it's painted, try to clay it off, and if it's bare plastic try a solvent like Goof Off. No experience with Goof Off but it's been recommended on here a few times for this application. Maybe someone esle can give you better tips.
 
I completely forgot about the clay :doh I'll try some of that Goof Off or Goo-Be-Gone too.



It's black plastic, when she made contact with her garage frame some of the white paint scuffed onto the edge of the plastic mirror housing.



Thanks for the input! I think that will do the trick :xyxthumbs
