So how did you get the painf of all those plastic buttons on the dash? the Clear plastic on the speedo and between the buttons and corners etc? Did you have to remove the interior and clean it up?

You should just go with it. If life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Go to the hardware store and buy more paint. Turn your interior into a mobile post-modern art exhibit. Spray multi-colored paint everywhere. Let your inner child have some fun.

Six years and still with paint accidents and not knowing how to remove it.
: smash:
I have not read the whole thread. I think everything is preventable, but s... happens, and if it does it can be cleaned right away.

Believe it or not oven cleaner will remove paint and not harm the underlying layer. Its great for removing pin stripes, logos, etc on the outside. You will have luck with it on the inside but you must be very, very careful with it cause you can ruin the interior just as quickly.
Also, make sure you leave the windows open and do it outside. Wear breathing protection. Its worth a try. Looks like you have nothing to lose unfortunately. Good Luck.

I registered just to see this. actually I thought it would be worse. when things like this happens (like flood damage), its better to just let it go for parts. I cant see the details or read if you fixed it or not, but it dosent look too bad. assuming you can clean it up, worst case it probably dinged the value. Maybe a painter would like it for a work car!

yikes, why on earth would you get a car anyway with white cloth interior? Not saying that leather would have fared any better but just sayin... Man you really did a number on that thing... Start scrubbing with paint thinner and see where it takes ya. Insurance co may have to total that car. Why did you not just put your finger on the hole the paint was spraying out of?
