if you don't mind, you could use goo gone or something like that....as for the flat black, you could try to use High gloss clear coat to make it shiny, maybe not as shiny as you wanted but, it will give some shine... I got the same thing 2nd time i painted my civic, adhisive and paint bled through the tape... So i masked it up with painter's tape and sanded it down to paint over the again.

Hope you paint job comes out great....

You can try Home Depot or Wal-mart.... I think that is the best place to start looking...

Try using your comp to see which one you like...or you could you do what I did (but I HIGHLY don't recommend it), go paint the car, then strip it and paint it a new color....if you don't like it, go with color you like... But try the computer first.

I went to SEMA in Vegas a couple of months ago and FLAT PAINT WAS THE NEW "COOL" THING.

ProDrive painted all of their cars in flat silver, Skunk2 painted their Super Street contending Civic Si in flat black and there were numerous other cars in flat colors... I painted my RSX flat black.. Ill post a pic of it when I get a chance.

So here's a pic of my FLAT black RSX:



- The flat black color is inspired by military stealth planes/helicopters

- Graphics are by Trap 1 Graphics available at http://www.t1g.com

Flat black isnt a flashy color but I'm tellin' ya its going to be in style soon!
