What does everyone use to get road line paint off trim and body in particular yellow paint? I have used mineral spirits in the past but not cutting it this time.

Stop by a body shop and try a dab of paint reducer and see if that'll help...

That's how I got the yellow road pint off a red MGA!

I had to use plastic razor blades to get it off my car. Most of it was in the wheel well but there was some on the paint. I was a PITA, though!!!

Lacquer Thinner or Window Washer Fluid if it is latex paint.

Key is to put some on cloth or paper towel and let soak for awhile.

Then wipe off.

Unfortunately it is small sections at a time and will take awhile.

On wheel wells you can be a bit more agressive with the solvents and still get decent results, paint patience.

How well will the window washer fluid method work on plastic molding for latex paint. Friend has a Kia that got latex paint on the lower plastic rocker panel. I was thinking of using a bug/tar sponge with just soap and water but looking for recommendations of easiest method with no damage to the plastic. Thanks in advance.

Alcohol works well on latex. Maybe cut with some water if it's painted plastic.

if its less than a week old use Tarminator. Spray it on, let it sit, then pressure wash it. If you vehicle has any wax on it at all it should come right off. Clay should remove anything left.
