Rustproofing overspray removal
I have some ares of legacy rustproofing overspray. How can I safely remove? Had some success with rubbing compound but not completely.
Thank You

Re: Rustproofing overspray removal
The shop I had undercoat/rustproof my car gives the cars a kerosene wipe-down to remove the overspray ... more like a waterless wash really, then a 'regular' wash to get rid of the kerosene residue. On my car at least, it didn't scratch the finish

I use kerosene as well for rustproof removal without issue. Idiots at Zieb*** spray everything!

So does the shop I use ... they spray and hand-pack EVERYTHING, an excellent job really, and they clean up after themselves and get the undercoat off of where it's not supposed to be. I used to work there and that's where I got started seriously detailing cars.

If it is a rubberized type rustproofing, I've had great success using TW label and sticker remover spray... believe it is citrus based and has done no harm to surfaces I've used it on.

This. I use it all the time to remove crap on the rockers and what not of cars I'm detailing.

Thank you for everyone's replies.
The overspray was caused by Zieb*** some years ago.

Tried citrus-based cleaner with only minimal success. Any thoughts on diesel fuel?

Well, it's a very close relative of kerosene ... which one is cheaper & do you have either on hand?

Brother-in-law has farm, so diesel is readily available; whereas, kerosene is not as easy to find.
