Things You Will Need
Fortunately, if you need to remove spray paint from brass, you're in luck, as brass allows for relatively aggressive removal techniques. Choose the proper tools and employ them in the correct manner, or you may end up with unforeseen consequences.
-
Scrape as much spray paint from the brass as possible, using a plastic putty knife.
-
Apply paint-stripping solvent to remaining spray paint on the brass, using your natural-bristled brush. Allow five minutes for the solvent to break down the spray paint adhesives.
-
Remove the remaining loosened spray paint, using 80-grit sandpaper. Use dry rags to clean excess solvent.
-
Use sponge to wash the brass with dish soap. Rinse the brass with wet rags and dry it with towels.
