Default Does anyone know how to remove house paint off my car.

I must have driven over a puddle of white paint yesterday because when I got home there was paint all over the side of my car. There was also paint all over my tires and inner tire well. So now I have to find a way to get that crap off any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks Andy

I had paint on my car from overspray at work. Worse than house paint this was a fine mist of epoxy paint!

I got it off with LOTS and LOTS of clay bar /detailing spray effort.

don't try anything abrasive. Soft scrub, plastic scrubbie, etc...you'll kill your clearcoat.

Good luck.

Yep, I had overspray from the body shop after having my roof replaced. I used Zaino clay over the entire car and it removed it pretty quickly - that stuff is awesome.
