Removing paint from wood trim?
Hey ladies,
I just repainted my kitchen yesterday, and there are five million edges in it. I taped everything, and as I removed the blue tape I saw that in some cases, the paint had bled through the tape onto the wood trim that is all over my kitchen. None of the wood is next to glass, and we're talking really small bleeds, but they're noticeable. How would you recommend cleaning it?

You made my wedding day complete.

Re: Removing paint from wood trim?
We are in the process of painting many rooms in our home, and I have had the same problem. I picked up some Goof Off at Lowe's, and used a small brush, and it worked great. In some cases, the Goof Off took off part of the wall paint, but I just taped that section and repainted for a more crisp line.
The plain blue tape is a nightmare. It never works for me. H and I have had great success with Scotch Blue tape with Edge Lock. It works great! http://www.scotchblue.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/Scotch-BlueBrand/Scotch-Blue/Resources/Edge-Lock-Protector/
