Methods to deal with paint spots on car surface are: 1. Dip a towel in banana oil and gently wipe the paint spots to dilute the paint, then rinse with clean water; 2. Gasoline can dissolve paint effectively with minimal corrosiveness. Dip a towel in gasoline and gently wipe the paint spots, then rinse with clean water; 3. Paint can be removed by wiping with alcohol (industrial alcohol). Use a soft cotton cloth dipped in alcohol to gently wipe the paint; 4. Essential balm can also dissolve paint and can be used to clean paint spots. Dip a cotton cloth in essential balm and gently wipe the paint.
I often deal with paint spots on cars, which can be caused by construction spray paint or environmental pollutants. First, wash the car thoroughly using a neutral car wash soap and a soft cloth to wipe the surface, removing any dust. If the spots remain, I use a car clay bar cleaning tool—spray lubricant on the spot first, then gently rub the clay bar to absorb the particles. If the results are unsatisfactory, try a car-specific cleaner or a mild polishing compound, but always test it on an inconspicuous small area to avoid damaging the paint. Remember not to scrape with fingernails or steel wool, as this can leave scratches. Finally, apply wax or a sealant to form a protective layer and prevent new spots from adhering. From experience, I’ve learned that regular car washing and avoiding pollution sources are most effective; once, I ignored a small spot, and it oxidized, making it much harder to repair later.
