Dick do you have a spot where you could test a product to see if
would help remove that white paint? A friend of mine used some
ovencleaner but sparingly and with lots of fresh air in the general
area. Like I said you could just test an area that would not show
and this might be the trick. Be sure to wear gloves and have a fan
on. Jon
