Will rubbing alcohol hurt paint?
For my b-day my friend and brother put shoe polish on my windows while I was at school (SFASU). NICE Gift seeing how my car just came out of the paint shop a week before.
Anyway... I had to work that night and couldn't show up with the certain remarks they had wrote. I was forced to run by a car wash and spray it off.
Over the past weeks i've been working on it with no luck. There are little white flakes everywhere.
I went by the body shop and they told me to use bug and tar remover, So I tried a little. It works, but slowly. Went by Autozone and picked up a clay bar and it works but again very slowly. The guy at AZ told me to use rubbing alcohol. I put some in a spray bottle and it works like a charm, fast.
Now, I know its removing the wax, but is it going to harm my clear coat or paint??
Thanks.
