lightly wet a soft cloth or terry towel with some paint thinner. Then rub lightly and it should slowly go away. Don't wipe too much as it will begin to damage the clear if you go past the graffiti

Sorry to hear that Adolfo. I hope you're able to take the crap off. Keep it out of the Texas sun until you do.

can't you use a polishing compound? I know O'Reilly's actually sells a "grafitti remover" kit. I actually saw the kit yesterday, I didn't take a real look at it though.

That sucks though

yeah hisham and i went to some irish pub on wurzback across the street from golden wok. i hate theses stupid idiots that think its so cool to write their stupid wanna be gang names. it says RNS with a = sign under the RNS. uh i wich their damn ares would just fall off lol. im just worried about the paint cause it is old and i dont want to mess it up. i was told to use either 3M adhesive remover or Goo Gone. after work im going to walmart to get some!

That sucks Adolpho, we were there for less than 40 minutes.
After talking to you yesterday I thought it was shoe polish.

Real sorry buddy, we'll get it off. I'll call you after work.


This was at Baker St. on Wurzbach and Fredricksburg.


Oh and everyone that left the meet early yesterday, you missed some fast and furious police blockade action. They even held some guy at gun point (could have been taser)

From reading some detailer forums I found:

ZEP Graffiti Remover
3M like you mentioned
WD40
Alcohol (must be done under 24hours)

Just found a few Links to paint removal from cars:
