Ouch ! I presume you mean liquid paper? Try white spirit or maybe paint cutter
Try rubbing alcohol or acetone. Then wash/wax the hood, and put the kid in timeout!
I would trya claybar before anthing else as a claybar has a %0 chance of ruining your finish if that fails try mr clean magic eraser but i would save the acetone and thinner for last as this will damage the finish of the car
Okay! What you do is get a soft cloth! soft as possible! And get a can of some paint thinner! Don’t pour it heavily on the rag! Put the ragover the opening of the can. Tilt the can fast slightly enough to swiftly wet the rag! Gently rub where the whiteout paint is untill it comes off! If it does leave marks in the pain! Wash the car totaly and dry off! Then take some turttle wax wax the whole car! I’f thier still is marks on the hood where pain was you might depending on how long the paint was on the hood have too have at least the hood buffed out????Hope this helps!
get some gas and a rag and scrub it hard then it should come right off because of the chemicals.
have you just tried your finger nail. I had some one be stupid on my work dest ad write some thing with it on the deck and it just scratches off I would just try that
what you need is a non abrasive solution so as not to scratch or remove the paint.
I would try something like SOFT SCRUB
or even TOOTH PASTE.
Try sugar soap should do the trick
Try to use a high pressure washer to remove the whiteout. If there is still some left on the paint you will need to try a paint cutting compound.
kids hey! : )
Get some t cut a cloth with a bit of elbow grease should do the trick..if it dos’t then use ‘tar glue’ remover !it works on alot of things not just tar glue it’s fine for car paint work, it’s what all car valeters use. you can buy it from your local car discount store. It’s really good stuff, handy to keep around the house too as you can remove stuff like sticky labels chewing gum from clothes etc.. : )
IF the whiteout has been on your car a while it’s still hard coming off or still visable then use /borrow a buffer(mop) buff it out using t.cut. It is pretty easy to do yourself but if your really stuck still then go to a car valeter through the yellow pages,
as long as it’s factory paint use oven cleaner will take it off
next time you fill up your car at the petrol station put a small amount of petrol on a cloth and wipe away the wipe out easy guarantee no damage to paint work
Try different things somewhere on the body that not visible before doing the hood.
try alcohol on a soft cloth. DO NOT USE THINNER. you will ruind the body finish.
Should wipe off with warm soapy water and sponge. Don’t use chemicals or abrasives. It should not soak into the paint.
