Nope. Done this myself last week after 3 days no sleep haha put thinners in a spray bottle, get a cloth. Spray top to bottom, and wipe top to bottom. Rubs off easily
Hopefully whatever you did worked out as a quick fix for you.
I remember doing this before. It SUCKED
I would have suggested filling up the gun with hardener and spray it over the complete paint job. Just a light coat. Just enough to kick it.
