Methods to remove spray paint from car body include: 1. Clean with banana oil: Banana oil can be used to dilute paint and has a good cleaning effect on paint spots. Note its flammable, explosive, toxic, and volatile characteristics when using; 2. Clean with gasoline, which does not have strong corrosive effects and can be applied by wiping with a wet towel; 3. Remove with fine sandpaper or a blade, but operate carefully; 4. For minor marks, they can be repaired by waxing and polishing. The main functions of the car body are to protect the driver and create a good aerodynamic environment. A good car body not only enhances performance but also reflects the owner's personality. Car body structures are mainly divided into two types: body-on-frame and unibody.
Use specialized paint remover or banana oil, but never touch the original factory paint. Last time I bought spray paint and messed it up, I applied paint remover gel, waited 20 minutes for it to soften, then slowly scraped it off with a plastic scraper and wiped off the residue with a towel soaked in adhesive remover. If the paint surface has been stained, lightly sand it with 2000-grit sandpaper. Always remember to wear long sleeves and a mask when working, as the fumes are very strong. For plastic parts on the car body, use professional plastic paint remover to avoid whitening. After finishing, wax the newly exposed paint surface for protection, or it might end up looking worse. Before starting, test a small, inconspicuous area first to be safe.
