Well, a punk messed up my 99ITR bonnet by painting what you see in the image below. Any suggestions on how to remove this?


Cheers

What the mess? That is lame. It looks like you need to invest in a car cover. Removal may be difficult. I would consult a body shop. Sorry to hear.

 

I'm not an expert on paint stuff but I think it should come off with some buffing compound?

...I hate f.cking haters!!!!

 

if thats just regular spray paint, get a clay bar, you can get them at a autozone, or pepboys or any kind of auto parts store, its a big hunk of this clay like stuff, it will come with a spray or you can use glass cleaner, and spray down the area with the paint real good and rub the clay bar over the paint, it should all come up with a little effort, after that clean the car real good and apply some wax, cuz the clay bar will remove any wax thats on the car

 

man that is some bs you might have to get that repainted. maybe some rubbing compound might work but after getting it off it might not look the same..
damn haters

 

I really need to catch bastard. I am sure he will come back one day. He is probably a F#$%^ed up teenager living in the same neighborhood. What I need is to invest some $$ in a good security cams for my parking lot since the cars are going to keep increasing.

 

dont use rubbing compound, get a clay bar you will be fine, the car will look the same when you get it off


iv gotten spray paint on my car before, and the clay bar got it off fine

 

That's really messed up. Claybar would be my best suggestion as well. Hope you catch whoever it was.

 

This didnt really happen in Japan, did it? Like everyone else said, claybar it. I would start with simple green first, CW hides blemishes well, luckily.

 

personally, i would leave it. Maybe add a little more to it

 

It happened in Japan, right here in front of my warehouse. Like I said, there is a F#$%ed up kid around. Most of the cars are parked right in front of their homes and no one cares. When I was trying to clean it up the other day(but I couldnt), an old person passing by told me that his car was messed up with the same wording too. As I type this, I have decent cars parked in front of my warehouse and a few more are coming. I dismantle cars for my customers and ship them out. Usually this doesnt happen in Japan. MY friends have cars on road side yards and nothing happen to them. Here is the view from the back of the cars. They are all nice cars and I am sure that messed up kid somehow couldnt handle the view. I am going to get that bastard one day.

 

Wow... Sorry to hear, hope you catch that kid! Any compound should take it off, mothers, turtle wax, etc.

 

claybar works good, some one painted wbp on my buddys door and it came off

 

Cheers guys, I am going to try this claybar and see if it will work.

 

I can picture this happening in Roppongi but not country side. Damm punk have too much Western influences!

 

if it dont work and you want to sell it, ill buy it!

 

sorry about that, but wet sand it down with 2000 grid paper and polishing compound from 3M can bring the clear back as long as its not down to the sheet metal. Good Luck...

 

Their is a wax that will take it off, its only 20 buck for 40 oz if i remember. I think they only sell it in the states. I'll find you the name later.

 

http://carnu-bwax.com/eng_products.htm The black bottle works. Too bad when i bought it it was buy one get one free. Well hopefully it works for you as it work for me.

 

A body shop WILL have the right chemical to take this off.

Go visit one before messing up your paint.

 

Have these guys fix it for you
