How to remove paint from wood?

[ManBearPig]

Just painted my living room, but some paint dripped on the wood trim. Any suggested products to buy to remove said paint? Thanks y'alls

Paint remover will also remove the paint on the wood trim. You can sand down the globs and then repaint your trim.

Try a razor blade, then lightly sand where it fell.

if it is fresh, it should come off fairly easily. I removed some with my nails.

Try scraping gently with a sharp blade. But keep the blade straight up and scrape sideways, don't try to slice it off. After you get most off, try using some very fine steel wool (000 or 0000 grade) to rub over the last bits.

Is it water based? If so, just get a wet sponge and soak it up. Fingernail usually works well too.

Magic eraser + water works wonders for removing latex paint.

Latex paint? Denatured alcohol or just scrape it off.

Burn down your house. It's the only way to be sure.

You'll want to rip out all the baseboards, while you're there, may as well rip out all the drywall to ensure you have no mold issues.

Nuke from orbit?

If it's latex, you should be able to scrape it up lightly. Just use something made of plastic so you don't damage the wood. If it's only a few spots, the edge of a credit card should work.

How much is "some." Getting a mental picture of something like this.
