I recently got into the miniatures painting hobby and assembled my gargoyles and painted them. They look okay but I glued the flying bases and got paint on them. Is there anything that will remove the paint from them that I can keep away from the paint on the gargoyles?

I've used simple green to strip ebay projects but want to keep that away from my painted model.

Edit: I'm in the US if that helps

you could get it off with some isoproal alcohol on a paper towel or cotton pad, then carefully rub it off.

but gotta be careful with it not to much alcohol you dont want it dripping wet onto the painted models.

Yeah you could use alcohol or even simple green. Get a small container to put it in. Just enjoy to cover the base, and set the model in it, just the base will soak, and then use a towel to wipe it off after it has soaked for a bit. You know you just can't flip it over or you get the cleaner on your painted model.

Just make sure the model won't fall over if you leave it sitting for a bit, and its out in the open where it could get knocked over.
