Would acetone damage the car's clear coat and paint?

nice British Green Racing stripe!

joke aside... definitely try some low abrasive compound.

grad prank?

but try clay bar first, it'll be slow, but it should be able to remove the green paint without damaging the car's original paint much.

Wow, wtf....

Post in the car detailing section, I'm sure someone will be able to give you more information if it's possible to remove it with a buffer.

clay bar works... it happened to my parents car a long time ago too...

yoall 05-30-2009 07:31 AM
nail polish remover?

Acetone is to strong. you must water it down.

Good luck. I hate people who does things like that. WTF.

ilvtofu 05-30-2009 07:45 AM
i wonder if u can write it off and get a fancy new paintjob on that section

asian_XL 05-30-2009 08:08 AM
DO NOT DO ANYTHING...

drive your car to ICBC...those inspectors there will do the magic for you. It's free.

ilvtofu 05-30-2009 08:10 AM
yeah man, for the amount of insurance you probably pay on that car, just use it

trd2343 05-30-2009 08:45 AM
Thanks for all the replies + help.
If I am going through ICBC, would I have to pay a deductible for this?

ilvtofu 05-30-2009 08:49 AM
yup, so it'll probably be more expensive than the above said methods to remove it.

iamed 05-30-2009 11:04 AM
for a job like this, the inspectors will probably do it for you for free. They're probably just going to rub it off with methods posted above anyway

bob_chan 05-30-2009 12:49 PM
I hate vandals..... :flamemad:

If they do, make sure you polish it after. The stuff they use might be hard on you clearcoat.

It makes me furious just thinking how immature one can be vandalizing other's properties... don't they have any empathy? What if I did that to their car?

But yea, try using a clay bar...

fliptuner 05-31-2009 10:09 PM
Fuck buddy, try living in Coquitlam when that piece of shit, cocksucker was running around for months, keying cars.

ilvtofu 05-31-2009 10:14 PM
only takes a couple of lowlifes to make anything (such as car ownership, jobs etc.) so much worse. Disgusting.

My friend lives in Coq, his car got keyed along with his whole neighboorhood... I think there was a lot of news story's on this.

If i saw someone Vandalize someones cars I'd stock them, and god knows what I'd do.

thumper 06-01-2009 06:50 AM
will he be required to file a police report for a vandalism claim?
