i hit one of them asses on a bike b4. after 2 years and a plea bargain because his father was a cop and it all of a sudden turned to my fault. i find out he was in 5 previous accidents. i hate motorcycles and the dumb *** hotheads who drive them.

If it doesn't come off very easy, try this turtle wax color matching stuff. It comes in a bottle that applies to the color you need, in this case, red. It should also come with a white "crayon" looking thing that does something for the paint.

Dude if you were pulling out to turn and the guy was riding on the street you pulled out into its your fault for hitting him. I'm an avid biker and this **** happens all the time. When stupid drivers think that bikers have to yield to them. In reality cars have to yield to the bikers when pulling out into a street no matter if theyre on the sidewalk or road.

Just removes layers of oxidation and surface contaminants. Try the clay bro, it should help get rid of some of that white paint, good luck

Go to a detail shop or body shop and get some body solvent and rub gently.

don't use clay bar, it won't work. it's made for taking overspray off paint, not a layer of paint. if you say i'm wrong, then you are wrong, as i used it every day for about a year and a half when i worked at a body shop.

your best bet is to use rubbing compound, as it has abrasive properties that won't mess up paint. if it was me, i would wetsand it with 1500 grit sandpaper, and buff it out. if you've never done this befre, don't try it, as it's easy to sand right through the clearcoat. good luck man.
