Bender Member 178 Member For: 17y 2m 3d Location: Newcastle Posted 27/06/09 06:09 AM Share Posted 27/06/09 06:09 AM So our roof got painted and my car didn't get moved. They said it would be fine where it was ( I wasn't home at the time or I would have moved it anyway)..So my question is how the fark do you get overspray off, pretty much my whole car had red all over it. Washed it twice got a fair bit off, I've now used paint cleaner pollish got a bit off, but my car feels like sand paper. You cant see it HEAPS from a distance but it feels like turd :-/Whats the BEST polish or what ever else I need to do/use to get this crap off of my car??My paint use to be immaculate if anything I polished it to much now this happens, not happy jan, luckily mum hasn't payed the guys yet if this sh*t doesn't come off they're paying for the repairs!!!!thanks for any advice given in advance-Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
