    White road paint

    I've got a gray Toyota Avalon that I ran through some white road paint. This stuff is tough!!! I have an orbital polisher and I've used machice polish, paint cleaner and paint thinner. Someone here must have an idea how to get this stuff off my car.

    Thanks in advance.

    Lacquer thinner. If that isn't bugging and no paint is going on the towel then it's most likely concrete and your screwed.

    Aggressive clay should do the trick.

    sent from my brain using my thumb.

    Bug and tar remover should work. Used it on one of my cars. After owning it for 2 days i crossed over a yellow line that was freshly painted and spots went all the way up the side. I tired picking at it, stuff was on there good. Got some bug and tar remover... it came.off like a piece of loose dirt.

    Did the same thing with my 2 day old Tacoma! I got it off with WD-40 and waxed immediately after.

    I got it off of my black Expedition with clay. I tried the plastic razor and the WD40 methods but the clay worked best. However, the road paint was baked on as it had been on the vehicle for some time.
