You can try clay. Might not work that well on the textured plastic but it might.

Also a very steady hand and a razor blade has been known to work on plastic.

I will try the clay.

Razor blade on textured plastic is not a good idea.

It is when you use the corner to flick the paint off. Not to scrape.

I agree. I have never had an issue removing overspray with nothing more than clay.

This is more than just flicking a bit of paint off.

Thanks JM, I will let you know how it goes.
