Does anyone know how to remove spray paint off of a wood door?

I was spray painting the doorway and I got just a bit of back spray on the wood door. The wood has grooves in it and I have no idea how to get it off. Thanks!Does anyone know how to remove spray paint off of a wood door?
Since it sounds like it is fresh, try washing with a degreaser. They are strong and will take off a lot of things. I would use a brush and scrub with the grooves, not against them.





After reading others I thought of the Mr. Clean magic scrubbing pad. That might work. I was assuming you really just want to clean it not strip and repaint it . Right?Does anyone know how to remove spray paint off of a wood door?
A paint remover like Poly-stripper would take off the top but you'll also have to sand. Would be easiest with electric sander but can also use good ole sandpaper by hand.
Sanding or stripping is the only way unless the paint has not dried already.


If it is still tacky, take a wet soapy green kitchen scrubby pad and scrub, scrub, scrub.
