Made a mistake putting the wrong paint on the front door?

I made a mistake putting the wrong paint on the front door. I removed 90% of the paint off but I still see a bit little paint. How do I remove all of it? Thanks

Keep sanding or use a chemical stripper.

What was wrong about the paint? what type and what type is previously on the door? inside or outside? The odds are you don't need to remove all of it.

I have a dented bottom garage door panel. Nobody around Boylston MA has, or can get, a replacement panel. Everybody I've spoken with wants to replace the entire door which is $$$. Either an available panel or any thoughts would be appreciated. TIARead More
