Thumbs down Overspray Problem

i got Duplicolor gloss on my rear bumper accidentally while i was trying to reinstall my tail lights after i got done tinting them. Is their anyway to get this off? maybe a buffer and some wax? goo gone? etc. i'd seriously hate myself if i had to take it to a body shop and have them take the bumper off, sand it down and repaint it. What can ya doo. crap happens like this at times.: cussing:

Any help would be sufficient!!

Very important that you do this step once you are done. Clean the entire area with soap and water even where you didn't get the thinner and over spray and wax the entire area aswell. Paint thinner will remove all wax.

If its just a lil bit you can use tar and bug remover and spray it on let it sit for 30secs and rub hard and then just repeat. worked for me

dosnt have to use a mothers clay bar, any will do. just thts available at most auto parts stores.


i personally think tht clay is WAY to hard. but will do the trick.

i always order the meguiers blue pro clay online.

pretty soft, but ohhh is it nice to use!


while ur at it u can get ur car squeaky clean, kill 2 birds with one stone. just dont drop the clay
