Old & Rough Tool Case - part 19 -- cleaning a few of the paint/spots on the leatherette

Top left side of the case.  There's several white/silver colored spots on the leatherette.  It looks like paint splatter spots.
Using a razor blade's tip, carefully scrape off the paint...


This is mid-scraping process.  Trying to be careful not to cut into the leatherette itself...


After.  There's just a hint of where the spots were but I'll stop here before I damage the leatherette (what's left of it on the case...).


Same process for this white spot on the inside of the front lid...


After cleaning...


Same for these spots on the RH side of the lock...


After cleaning...


RH side of the lock looks pretty good.  Just a hint of the spots are left...


The area on the LH side of the lock gets the same type of cleaning...


After cleaning.  Looks good.
