Zaino build up removal?

Ok, so i LOVE zaino...it makes the car look insanely cool.

But, the RX* has these little edges on the lower front of the fender flare on back wheel(know what i mean)...the z2 i apple seems to have made a small white build up around this in the edges...anyone have tips for removing it?

I've come to using my finger-nail, but there is still a bit stuck there. I'm not sure what the best way to get it off, without damaging anything is.

Might try a toothpick or a toothpick with a piece of cloth between it and the paint.

This was my next likely solution...as long as i'm gentle, it should be ok for the paint?

The build up like that means you are putting it on too thick to begin with. I had the same build up at first, and now apply it in a very thin film, like the directions say

It goes on very thin, but of course, it collects in the edge. I get 2 application/removals from a 2oz mix(with ZFX). Am i using too much?

Are you saying that after an application and removal of Z2 that the edge of this piece has 100% of the substance out of it's corners? I'm not saying its a HUGE build up...just a thin white edge.

Go to the store and buy a "SOFT" toothbrush and use that.
Just make sure it is the "SOFT style.
If that dont work get a Jack Hammer.
