remove masonry paint from car bodywork?!
 

So, it seems that I didn't park the OH's Freelander far enough away when roller painting the walls of the house at the weekend!

Managed to get tiny spatters of white masonry paint over the thing - lots of tiny spots the size of a pin head. Easily got it off the paintwork (clay bar) and glass (scraper) but the bumpers have areas of textured/dimpled plastic and where the paint has landed in the hollows I can't think of what to use to lift it out?

Any non-destructive ideas or suggested products welcomed.

Thanks,
Steve

steam cleaner as in a karcher steam cleaner for the kitchen/windows and cooker, not a car/lorry cleaner, worked on the wifes 306xsi when i made the same mistake, get on it quick before whats left of the sun bakes it on

Thanks madscoob; will see if can borrow one and have a go :thumb:

Masonary paint can be water or oil based; paint from B&Q etc will prob be water based, oil based from pro shop. Take care with oil based, and ask at decorater`s supply shop.

if water based you'll be able to soften it up with meths if it's started to set. just be careful though.

try a clay cloth to get the last bits off too.

WD40 :)

Careful with WD40 mate as It's got silicone in it. Not good if the car ever needs any paint
