    My CJ5 still has the original (I think) manual windshield wiper mechanism and wiper washer fluid bag?

    the PO painted over the plastic bag.

    the bag still holds water and doesn’t leak and the windshield washers still work. but I was wondering if there’s any suggestions for cleaning the paint off of it without causing any leaks.

    here’s a pic of the bag…

    Do you know what sort of paint was used? I'd try a little acetone on a small spot & wipe it off immediately just to see what happens.

    I have no idea. It’s been on there since I bought the Jeep.
