How do I get rid of paint on a mirror?

Answer by  greysquirrel (239)

Hardware stores sell paint thinner. It comes in a rectangular can. There's also a product called Jasco. I'd test this stuff on another mirror or an inconspicuous spot on the mirror just to make sure the product doesn't have a bad reaction to the mirror though it shouldn't.

Try a razor blade, like the kind of blade used in utility knives or box cutters. Just make sure you keep the blade parallel to the surface of the mirror. If you don't you might scratch the mirror.

Nail polish remover should get dried wall paint off a mirror.

The easiest way is to use a new razor blade and run it nearly parallel to the glass. If you can put the blade at the end of a scrapper, it'll be very simple.

You can try to get it off with a Utility Razor blade. One end is razor and the other end you can hold onto.

The best way to remove paint from a mirror is to use a flat razor blade to scrape off the paint off the flat surface of the mirror.

I think the best way to get the paint off the mirror would be to get a razor blade or somoething sharp and scrap the paint away. I would be very careful not to stratch the mirror.

I agree with the razor blades, like blades like hefito said. If you spray a glass cleaner on it before you use the knife it should make scratching the mirror less likely.
