Default Cars all over League City spray painted.

So I woke up this morning to a knock on the door. It was a cop, and he said my car had been spray painted along with 6 other cars on my street. Apparently, it's been happening all over League City. Anyone know how to get it off?

Yeah, I felt like it. I'm still sort of in shock about it.

I would just try rubbing compound and do it by hand. Make sure you get the clear-coat safe compound.

"weeee! pin stripes!"

Had some kids do that to my truck a few years ago, not quite as bad as they did your car though. I just used regular wax and it came off. If your car was dirty you might try the presure washer first and then I would go from there buffing the car will get most of it, but in the door handles a tight cracks it is going to be hard. I'd use laquer thinner on a rag to get the majority, but becareful it will start to take your paint off also if you keep rubbing on YOUR paint and once you get the major portion of it then go to a Polishing compoud like 3M's Perfect it use GL. Thinner on the wheels and glass no problems.

Most of the stuff should come off by just pressure washing it off, for the rest I would try just using a clay bar to get it off.

From experience, clay bar and WD-40. It comes off a ton easier using the two combined together. Good luck, I would definately put up a motion sensored flood light out front. Good luck.

Well, Meguiars Scratch Remover seems to work on most of it. Taking a VERY long time though. God this sucks...
