#128 of 131 How to remove paint overspray , etc by quadring Aug 16, 2009 (9:41 am)
My wife ran over a can of spray paint and "painted" the side of her car. It got on the paint as well as the black plastic moldings. I did some research to find removal methods. First I tried the clay bar/lubricant method...it removed a tiny bit of the overspray, but not very effective. Next I tried a flat razor blade and lubricant...somewhat effective but leaves minor scratches in the clearcoat. The best method I have found...easy, cheap, extremely effective: a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser!!! Keep it wet, apply some "elbow grease" and the overspray comes right off with no damage to the car's finish. Amazing!!! It even cleans the rough-texture plastic areas! Apply some wax when done.

Replying to: co8237 (Nov 16, 2006 1:45 pm) Safest and natural product to remove sap, blood, goo from a car after a decal has been removed (or no decal) is eucalyptus oil. You can get it from most major supermarkets (also be careful of using chemicals on painted surfaces, as if is a re-spray, you can affect the paint)   If you need to remove decals try decal removal site as has tips on how to remove them and videos

They are taking responsibility for their mistakes.
