How to get paint off a car

[kp789]

I have been an absolute donkey.


I have sprayed both front wings of the car with what I thought was 'paint protector' it was in fact car spray paint (I have no idea how)

Anyway it is done and i need to get it off. I have tried a bit of t cut and the like and it has sort of shifted altough I now have smeary white stuff on it which I cant wash off.

Any tips before I take it to the body shop!!!!

White spirits and a soft cloth, worked for me 20 odd years ago when some **** sprayed my Ford Capri orange after a rave.

Paint stripper, bit fucking obvious but if you can't see your spraying your car, well

This or diesel it works you have to be gentle with it otherwise you will leave a smear. Vinegar works as well.

Might not do your car much good, but it certainly will get the paint off....

A key seems to be the choice of winners round here....

Brake fluid takes paint off but might be too harsh for what you want.

WD40 and a rag....not the red type of rag
