How do I remove paint spills from unfinished wood?
We have a new, un-sanded, fence. The wood is rough and unstained.
The house was just painted and the painters did a beautiful job, spilling paint on the fence.
How do I remove it? Can't sand it off as that will be obvious. I assume turpentine or thinner will ruin or stain the unfinished wood and also look obvious.
Paul, I'm not being sarcastic, but I would ask the painters how they are going to remove paint spills from the unfinished wood.
Notwithstanding, you could use paint thinner, or turpentine. When I evaporates it may not show at all.
But I would certainly approach the painters first!
