    Well, sometimes working I paint with oil base paint, specifically tremclad and somehow through all my carefulness I Still get hit with yellow paint somewhere. So, currently I have some on my seatbelt, visor, center console and door. I was wondering what kind a products would take it out?

    I've used rubbing alcohol, lighter fluid and elbow grease.

    Thanks in advance.

    My bet is it won't harm things, but as I love my truck just as much as the next guy and I'm assuming you do as well... I would suggest trying a small test area first that is hidden just to be sure.

    I'll try it and get back to you.

    Would it work taking it off the paint too?
