Solutions for small paint dots on the car: 1. Dip a towel in banana oil and gently wipe the paint dots to dilute the paint, then rinse with clean water; 2. Gasoline can dissolve paint without much corrosiveness, and the steps are the same as with banana oil; 3.

I often encounter small paint splashes on my car, likely caused by parking near painting areas or construction sites. When dealing with them, I first use warm water and neutral car wash soap with a soft sponge to gently wipe. For stubborn spots, I apply automotive clay bar or mild abrasive compounds and rub repeatedly. A reminder to everyone: never use hard objects to scrape, as this may damage the original paint. Prevention is key—I make a habit of avoiding parking near houses or factories under renovation, and regular waxing helps form a protective layer. If DIY methods don't work, visit a professional auto detailing shop early to prevent deep penetration of paint spots over time. Remember, maintaining your car's paint ensures peace of mind during daily driving.
As a DIY enthusiast, I find dealing with paint spots quite simple and practical. First, mix a bit of dish soap with warm water and gently scrub with a microfiber cloth; if that doesn't work, try applying diluted household white vinegar, then rinse with clean water. For tools, I recommend buying canned automotive clay or cleaning wax, which can handle most surface stains on your own. Don't overlook prevention: park away from construction sites, and installing a car cover or protective film is very convenient. Expanding on that, I've noticed that if paint spots come from another vehicle's scratches, after gentle treatment, you might also need to consider touch-up paint to prevent rust. When washing your car, using soft water more often helps protect the paint, making it last longer and stay shinier.
