Removing road paint Hello, Been putting this off for the longest of them. Need recommended ways to remove stuck on road paint splatter. Everytime I finish washing my car I get to stare at these white spots on my drivers side fenders/door. Tips? Spoiler! Spoiler! Spoiler! Spoiler! |
plastic razor blade water based solvent "detailers prep solvent" and u might wanna polish after |
take to detailing shop have them wet sand it out happiness or .. attempt to do it yourself screw it up cry |
Autoglym tar remover do the trick?? |
take it to the detailer and they will get them properly removed |
ugh i hate when this happens. i was following a truck that decided to change lanes over freshly painted lines and i got splattered. how long are we talking about? this happened to me and i literally went nuts on it the next day because the longer it takes to dry the harder it will be to remove :( i used claybar to get 90% off of mine and the rest i used mother's swirl remover to take out. the car was well waxed under the paint splatter so that helped. |
Clay bar as much as you can off. This is the best option, it will only leave swirls. Anything remaining, VERY gently try to use a plastic blade without scraping or scratching your paint. Another option is using a little wax and grease remover and rub it off. You will have to cut polish every section you used wax and grease remover. Posted via RS Mobile |
Avoid wet sanding. Cutting compound washes off over time and you'll have dull marks everywhere you sanded. Good luck. Posted via RS Mobile |
How long has it been on the car? |
It's been on the car for probably 6 months. Couldn't tell you exactly. I managed to remove some of the bigger spots with a plastic razor. Just looking at it now it's a huge difference when you get the big parts out. The small dots won't go away however with the card. |
Line paint is extremely hard once its cured. Unfortunately it can actually be harder than your cars clear coat and you could wind up removing the clear before you remove the line paint. Using a small dab of laquer thinner on a MF towel and gently rubbing may remove whats left. If you want to pop by, we can have a look at it for you and see what will safely work. |
