clay bar and don dishwashing liquid (blue) with water of course. That is cool that he is actually is willing to take care of his mess. I am sure they were all laughing at the clout of overspray heading toward the " big winged " car. Now look at who can laugh as they drive away with a fresh detail job, But the hassel really isnt worth it in the end.

Well $400 and 4.5+ hours of hard work, my car looks great again
Brian from perksdetailing.com/ did a great job. the Honda Ridgeline, and Hyundai that also got the overspray, looked brand new to.

No sir.
The owner of the place next to us came over yesterday, and said he was really sorry, and he paid for everything. I guess he is going to go after the painting company he used that F'ed up our cars.
Really cool of him.
i think the guy i talked to yesterday, was owner or something of the painting company? dont know but he was a dick!! glad i didnt have to deal with him!!! I would have lost it!!

You would need 1000 claybars to get that off!
Glad you got it worked out though, i hate paint related problems.

find out who painted it for them, act stupid and say "oh well whats the company, i want to see if they do residential work", get the companies name and then proceed accordingly
accordingly for me would be to go paint all their **** (trucks, supplies, equiptment, building,etc) with black spray paint!

So i washed my car yesterday, then when strait home and into the garage, then i attaked the wheels.
I go to work today, just like any other day. The day ends. I walk to my car, and drive off. I think to myself...." man my winshield is dirty as F*ck!!!, but I washed it yesterday.wtf? When i got home. i tried to wash it off. but its paint!!!!!! and its all over my car.
I drove back to work, and went over to the buisness next to us. and they had been spray painting huge metal beams all day. I dont know if its paint or primer.
Whats the best way to take care of this?? does this stuff come off? has it happened to anyone else?
Here are the pics. the flash makes it look worse than it really is.. and its all over the paint as well. The whole cars feels like sandpaper.

you could use paint thinnner or some other kind of highly concentrated chemical. it shouldnt mess up the paint either. i used it on my tb and got no scraches from doing that, someone decided to spray paint my car....not to funy

well after washing the car last weekend, the paint is not 100% it still has some overspray on it.. i went and got a claybar and got off what i could..
most would not notice anything, but i do.. you can see it up close in certain spots, its not bad at all, just kind of bums me out.. 4 month old car and the paint is torn up.. but whatever!!! rally time!!!
