JunkmansHomeboy Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I need to know the best way to remove dried paint from under the fender wells and along the side of A truck. Paint has been there for some time. I've used apc and it does help to remove it but is there Any better method to use? When using apc it helps break it down but still have to scrap the paint off I don't mind doing this for the plastic fender wells but I don't like to scrap anything across my paint.

0 Kingsford Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Clay Bar... Don't use it on the truck paint first, then use it on the fender well, then throw it out. No need in risking destroying your paint by keeping it or using it on the wheel well first. If that doesn't work, maybe try mineral spirits.

0 CMDChase Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I agree with clay bar. I've had a lot of success with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 WHTEVO Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 I have also had great success with removing paint over spray with Adam's claybar. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Rich Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Have to agree here. I got road striping paint on my old Vette and that's what took it off along with the detail spray. It takes some muscle, but it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Chris@Adams Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Did the clay work? If not you may have to use something like 3M Adhesive remover.....remember once you get the paint off to re-wax or apply more sealant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Fphillips Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 3M Adhesive stuff works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
