Remove Spray Paint

A co-worker just bought a new black G35 on Saturday. On Sunday, someone spray painted the car with red spray paint. Most of it is gone but not all. Any suggestions?

Re: Remove Spray Paint

I'd say throw whatever you can at it as a repaint is probably the only other choice... just start with the least agressive method.

Try some agressive clay? Paint thinner? A heavy compound?

Thanks Makdaddy. After I posted it looked like their product Max-all could be better for auto paint ???? They have wipes too.

Re: Remove Spray Paint

If you have a good factory paint job on the car, you can try some lacquer thinner on it. blot it wet, let it sit less than a minute, while it's still wet - wipe it off.

Re: Remove Spray Paint

A light finishing polish usually works, the graffiti product was recently used by Ed with nice results too.
