Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / General Car Topics / September 2008how to remove house paint from car?
I have a silver metallic paint car, recent European model. Our garage door hit the top of the hood of the car and left white paints on the hood. I think this paint is regular house exterior latex paint. So far I am unable to wash or clean or rub it off. Can you please tell me how to remove this white paint? Thank you. >I have a silver metallic paint car, recent European model. >Our garage door hit the top of the hood of the car and left white paints on >the hood.

Try a bit of paint thinner if the paint is oil based. Or get some polishing compound and gently rub it off. Try not to use rubbing compound as it's likely too aggressive and will scratch up the clear coat on tthe car. A bit of wax after helps. P I always heard that brake fluid was good for removing paint caused by accidental rubs or scuffs. > >I have a silver metallic paint car, recent European model. > >Our garage door hit the top of the hood of the car and left white paints on [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > coat on tthe car.

Depending upon the value of the car, I'd consider taking it to a good body shop. > > > On Tue, 16 Sep 2008 16:35:49 -0700, "A J Wright" [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > P >  Signature"The ABS system can not overcome the laws of physics."

I've used Goof-Off to remove paint from several of my vehicles over the years. So far no problems or finish damage. Test in an inconspicuous spot to verify it will not affect the finish on YOUR vehicle. FWIW YMMV |
