    remove house paint off my car !!!

    Hi everyone, I drove through house paint (some fuckin' dummy tossed into the
    middle of the road) ...it splashed the length of my car passenger-side(front
    fender, front quarter, door, rear quarter, rear bumper)- but 'thankfully'
    only hitting the lower portion of the car below the weatherstripping ....now
    the 'BIG QUESTION' ...how do I remove this house paint-stain off my 2-year
    old car paint ????

    Hopefully, it's latex, not oil-base.

    Run to paint or Home Imp. store, get a pint of "Goof-Off" for latex paint...
    if it's oil-based, try charcoal lighter

    Either one - test in inconspicuous place... though you should be able to take
    it off without affecting your paint.

    Or take it to an established (experienced) detailer.

    Well.. it's too late now, but most house paint is water-soluble.. so soap
    and water would have removed it if washed off before it dried.

    Try using a product called Goof Off. The clear coat on your paint will not
    soften using mineral spirits formulations such as goof-off and this stuff
    really works. Likely as not, the paint was latex and will come off easily.

    If the finish is good, automotive soap and warm water should be able to get
    it off.

    Or use a polishing compound like Meguire's and then
    wax it up.

    I'LL SAY AGAIN!!!!!!

    1. Bug and tar remover is the same as charcoal lighter but 2-3 times as
    expensive

    2. GOOF OFF works better if it's latex paint - will soften and remove it
    after paint's dried.
