What is the safest method to removing midsole paint from Powder Blue 3s? I've heard acetone is to harsh and scraping paint off is not recommended.  
 
Don't know if you have an Instagram, this page called raleighrestorations has something called midsole magic. Just apply and wipe off. I personally have never tried it, but they have a short video demo. Check it out. Or just go to their website.

Use Raleigh Restorations Midsole Magic, God of Soles Midsole Paint Remover, or FBCC Dip & Strip Shoe Paint Remover (be careful it's super strong and can take off foamposite paint). If you're running on a budget you can always use hot water on the midsole.. the glue shouldn't melt because the water is not boiling and is not on the shoe for a long duration of time. Look up the video by SneakerHeadInTheBay, he did a tutorial on it.
 
Safest is by hand with a file in my experiences. Its time consuming, but you wont have to worry about damaging your midsole.

Isn't it true that if you're too aggressive you can mess up the midsole?
