Cleaning road paint of car??????
What should I use to clean off some road paint off a vehicle. One of my employees rode on a road that just got painted and the drivers side is covered with road paint. He claims that there was no signs stating that was wet paint on the road, but who cares wtf are you doing riding on the lines anyway???? The paint is already dry so i'll try and get it off saturday. Any ideas on what to use????? Power washer, goof off, what????

I have some on my car also! I think I am going to try clay. I was detailing my dads car a while back and he had some white paint on the bottom part of his front bumper and clay took most of it off.

Well from the front fender to the rear wheel it covered from the bottom and about 18" up. Then the tiny dots are everywere, hood ,rims, roof, doors, windshield etc. I simply can't believe it. In the thickest part I would say it might be 1/4" thick . The worst part about it guy is no young punk he's 40+ years old, you would think he would know how to drive in his lane!!!!! Then it might have a few dots here then and there.

HEY! This just happened to me!! I had my mom's acura TL, and late at night going down a bumpy road where I normally cross over to line to avoid a pothole. Next morning yellow paint ALL over the car.
Called the town of cary, they paid for a mobile detailer to clean it.
very Hot water pressure washer takes it off! her car looks good as new

I would definitely call the county or the town/city depending on where it happened and tell them the story. Friend of mine got a new rim because of a pothole doing this, they paid for it all.

Well the county is cutting a check to get it cleaned off. Today I went ahead and took care of it. Almost 8 hrs of powerwashing, washing, goof off, more washing, clay bar, some more washing and cleaner wax. And then it all done. Sure wish this would have happened in the summer time, because I froze today.
