        Toothpick here too , moistened with a bit of acrylic thinner , careful not to scratch too hard though you dont want to mark the clear bits

          I have had good results with Vallejo Airbrush cleaner and a couple of cotton buds.

            I use a toothpick, sharpened up to a chisel edge, and keep on sharpening it to scrape away the paint...........

              As I tend to get more paint on other things than the model Andy I can vouch for some AB cleaner as Ian says . Mrs Race will wholeheartedly agree as to its powers of removing paint from a shirt !
