HELP, Road Paint!

[David_411]

I accidentally hit a spot of road paint that was still wet, now I have this paint all over the side of my truck. Wheel wells, rocker panels, nerf bars, you name it. It has the consistency of a spray bed liner. I cannot get it off. Any one know how?

Get a good clay bar...it works perfect for that.

Paint thinner is the only thing that you can do that I seen work and even for tar. then the paint you need to wax other wise you will hav more problems then you want.

Use thinner or acetone and soak it so it softens up with a rag. As long as you keep moving you will not harm the paint.

Paint thinner is one thing but acetone, I don't know, sounds a little strong if you ask me. Definately don't let it sit in one place or rub it hard with acetone.

I deal with this a lot, I own a detail shop. Use lacquer thinner soak it and wipe, soak, wipe, soak, wipe, it might take a little time but it will work. In the wheel wells do the same and use a plastic razor blade to gently scrape, and on the nerf bars if they are chrome use quadruple steel wool but if they are stainless or painted don't do that, just thinner. Clay probably wont work. Let us know.
