i had my car painted becaus,e of vandalism and the guy whom painted it did a lousy job of covering the rims. i have overspray and would like to know how do i get it off. they are polished with a clearcoat.

damn dude that sucks sorry to hear that

This happened to me, also. The overspray wasn't bad and my wheels are chrome. I took it back to the shop and pointed it out to them. They worked on it and made it better, but not up to my standards. It was a little tedious, but I used my clay bar on the wheels and it helped a lot. My wheels are smooth, simple design. Good luck ...

thanks, im gonna look into the clay bar. i really dont want to take it back to the shop plus it originally happened in sept. the warmer weather will be here soon and its time for me to get them fixed. i guess if all else fails maybe i will paint them over maybe the color of the car who knows.

clar bar is your best bet.

I've used a pink rubber eraser to remove overspray in the past as well, but not on something as fragile as a polish + clearcoat.

your other option is regular cleaner/wax or polishing compound on a rag. Iv'e removed it that way as well...

thanks i will look into those as well. the good thing is there is only one bad one the rest will definitely wax out. i'll try maybe this weekend and let you guys know how it came out.

lackin Thinner Is The Best jus ask for some in the body shop and do it in front of them like this they can see wut garbage they do

its a long story but my car got broken into while it was being repaired, and they sent it out to there body people i have no idea who they are and plus im suing the owner for this same matter and stereo. i will look into the lackin thinner, is this the correct name and where do i find it.
edit: oh o.k i see it in the post so the bodyshop guys have this.

DO NOT USE THINNER! Use an aggressive claybar before you use any type of thinner. I reccomend clay magic or the meguiar's aggressive claybar.
