    Default Spray Paint removal...

    Some POS went through my back alley on Sat night tagged a bunch of stuff.

    Garage doors, travel trailers etc...and the Hood of my Porsche that was outside due to me having some equipment set up in my garage as I did some home reno's.

    So now I have a lovely swath of black spray paint on the hood of my car.


    Any suggestions on how to remove it other than grabbing a sander and going for it ?

    Thanks.

    Well Acetone got the paint off.

    Its still a little dull...

    Would clay bar bring back the shine a bit before polish ?

    Grab "Doodle Buster" from Apple Cleaning Supplies. If you aren't worried about clear, it should do the trick.

    If it is dull, try using a polishing compound or scratch remover. If that isn't enough to get the shine back, then start with a cutting compound first. Don't rely on the wax to bring back the shine.
