If it was regular enamel you are in luck. Paint thinner ( mineral spirits
) or turpentine will not react with the acrylic plastic window. (stronger
solvents will attack the plastic) So gentile rubbing with a very soft clean
cloth soaked in paint thinner will do the trick. It may take a while so be
patient. Clean up with plastic polish then plastic cleaner. If it was
catalyzed enamel, solvent won't touch it. You may be able to polish it off
using a three step plastic polish system. there will be three grades of polish
sort of coarse, medium, and fine. Try to rub only on the paint as much as
possible. Especially with the "coarse" polish. Take your time and you should
be able to wear away the paint without distorting the plastic.If you have more
questions contact me and I'll give you my phone number. I do this kind of
thing for a living.
Good luck

Hi Listers - Splattered a little black enamel on back window. Smooth, huh?
Any
