Question for the paint Gurus.

Had my bed Rhino lined about 3 months ago. Good stuff and I like it. The problem is that some over spray got on top of the cab. I noticed it last weekend when waxing the beast. The question is;
1. Do I leave it alone?
2. If I try to remove it (or the shop that did it) will the paint come with this stuff?
3. How do you remove this stuff?

Thanks in advance for all replies.

If it is alot I would take it back to the place that you had it done. It is there responsibility to properly mask off the surrounding area. I would also let them know that in the removal process they remove the paint that they will be paying for a paint job. If it is minimal overspray you could leave it alone, you're the only one that knows it's there.
If you are like me I would probably get "P.OFF" every time I'd see it, the amount of overspray wouldn't matter I would take it back.

Go back to the guys and let them have a look at it . I am sure this not the first time this has happened. If you use the wrong stuff your going to damage your paint

Go back to the place and do as AF sugested. Check your reciept and any brochure stuff they gave you and push the if you messed it up you Fix it attitude. You paid for the bed to be sprayed not the roof of the cab. As Mississauga said Its probably not the first time and they will probably just use clay block to remove it. if they give you a hard time get your lawyer involved. Then and go to a bodyshop and ask what they recomend to fix it. If you want to try to fix it yourself I would pickup the clayblock form your local autobody supply and RUbb--Rubb Rubb. Its a slow process but it works well.
