    Greg, the suggestion to use a nib file and (or) a razor blade are good ones. I didn't even know nib files existed until now. While researching nib files, it was suggested you take some masking tape and wind a couple of wraps around each end of a single edged razor blade to remove the majority of the run as well. Works just like a little wood plane.
    You're right, a "run-razor" works just like a little wood plane and looks like this. The white platic thumb screw in the middle bends the razor blade creating a slight curve and thus adjusting the depth of your cut. You can pick them up at any auto paint store or get them online at Amazon http://www.amazon.com/home-improvement/dp/B002XMP05S

      I told you there was a good clear job in my POS gun Not a great job but as good as I can doing it outside.These are the bad sides to.A few runs but those are novice sprayer errors for the most part.With 6 coats there's a bit of "room" to fix them

        Never doubted your abilities and persistence. Glad you slogged through the tribulations.

                Not a paint job up to nvr2old standards but I'm not Larry either.I get that idea dorkburger but with the EF so little of the frame is visible think it actually needs to be accentuated.If it sounds like I'm redoing it silver you are probably right
