Try a clay bar, it is used by body shops to remove paint overspary, so it should work.

Failing that , try some very fine cutting compound or some paint restorer .there is a brand formulated for clear coat .

i reckon that KITTEN cut and polish would do it, it's in a flat round red tin,

[calais_cruzin]

yeah Kittin no2 cut should do the trick yo

[Dayvo]

Just remembered the name of the product ." T cut " for clear coat , in a reddish bottle

cheerz guys.. he's gonna try the cut n polish first so we will see how that goes, if not will we give clay bar a shot

[jules]

that happened to me once. cut'n'polish did the trick nicely. apply carefully though.

metho in most cases will only accelerate the drying process of most paints, turps would have been your best bet, followed by Wax and Grease remover and then a good polish.

as stated a cutting compound might work, if it does follow it up with a polish.

(Don't try this unless you are desperate and somewhat skilled)
Otherwise 1500 + wet and dry, water with dishwashing liquid in it should be used and keep everything wet n soapy, lightly go over the affected panel and I mean friggen lightly.
Afterwards follow up with a good polish.

I hear lowlifes are allergic to front bumpers.... (please don't really try this)

My uncle says their cars are allergic to bull bars....

Try Aerogaurd... yes mozzie repellent. Not **** apparently its what they use when colourbond fences get tagged. It should work on the number plate, no harm in trying the bumpers aswell. Let us know if you try it and let us know how you go id be interested to hear some more stories bout it.

if your car is painted with 2-pac paint then you can use a paint thinner to get it off (just a bit on a rag at a time! not a rag soaked in thinners) then a bit of a hand wax if you have acrylic paint the you cant use thinners and sanding it off like dannybouy said earlier and use a machine polisher (buff) and cutting compound then a hand wax.

failing that it might keep the bugs off the front of the car and outta your grille

Autosol Metal polish. Nothing better for cutting back overspray just becarful not to go all the way back past ur clear.

dijm8, what worked for you?

I remember some low life did the whole side of a marked cop car a while ago, was left on the vehicle for a few months but then was removed in secret as well as plates changed (to get people to think that vehicle was just moved on and sold).

[dijm8]
