My car is navy metalick and this is white spots if it is from road marking how can i remove it safly can any one help or what should i useI have paint on the side of my new car and i think it is from new road markings?
Don't remove it yourself! Take pictures of it as evidence, and contact the local council. They should clean up the damage.I have paint on the side of my new car and i think it is from new road markings?
i would say go to your local halfords store who will be able to advise the best course of action, but other than that some thing like tar remover will be just as good. hope this helps
White spirit normally does the trick, but the sooner you do it the better.
use a mothers clay bar

Apparently you can actually wash it off as it will peel (I have 2 friends who work in the business)


You should only have gotten paint from the road markings if you were right next to the painter as he was laying the paint down though as once down it does not splatter :O)

Does pep boys or auto zone have car touch up paint?

Does anyone know if pepboys or autozone or any other place that have car touch up paint around South Pasadena,CA. And how would i find out exactly what color my Mercedes 560sl is? Heres a pic of the color http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/co鈥?/a>Does pep boys or auto zone have car touch up paint?
look for the paint code under the hood of the car and take the code with you to NAPA auto parts and they can order paint for you or you could go to the mercedes dealer and get it.Does pep boys or auto zone have car touch up paint?
I recommend getting the exact match paint at a dealer's parts department. The paint sold at places like Pep Boys is ';generic'; and won't match as well.
they have touch up paint but it wont be the same one to match your car. go to the dealer for that.
the dealer can tell you the correct color and sell you a tube of touchup paint.
sure most parts store do have it its just finding the right color.. best you try a dealer

WD-40, Effect on Car Paint?

Will the use of WD-40 on a car's body damages its paint?WD-40, Effect on Car Paint?
WD-40 won't hurt car paint whatsoever.WD-40, Effect on Car Paint?
I just used to to get tar off my paint and my dad has used it on paint for years. Never had a problem, I don't think it is as harsh as Bug and Tar Remover and thats used on cars all the time.
NOT UNLESS YOU APPLY IT WITH STEEL WOOL


We used kerosene or diesel in the old days when wax wasnt available to make em shine.
Nope
I've used it on door hinges and such for years and have never seen any evidence of paint damage.
no it will not damage it.

  • Car Paint Faded (Mazda)?

    Hello


    I have 1992 Mazda 626 (Blueish Greenish in colour)


    AND ALL THE PAINT IS FADED


    The car is a great car runs fantastic but it looks so friggen bad!!!


    I live in NSW/ACT Australia


    I was wondering if anyone knew how much it would cost me to get the car sprayed or some other alternative option i can do about the paint.





    any other help would be appreciated


    Thank youCar Paint Faded (Mazda)?
    It isn't worth it. Just try some Nufinish and drive it around until the wheels fall off.


    Noone expects an 18 year old Mazda to look nice, anyways.Car Paint Faded (Mazda)?
    if you have the time to do it yourself you can use a rubbing compound with a power buffer and use lighter and lighter grit till you get a smooth finish. then polish and wax and your good. or take your car to a detailer and ask what they would charge to ';cut'; your paint which will take off the oxidized layers and take it down to a like new look. its cheaper then repainting thats for sure
    dude, I have the exact same problem with my 1996 mazda millenia in florida, usa. the car runs like a champ but the paint is toast. It's black so I just sanded and repainted the parts that looked really bad. It still looks crap but not totally crap like before.

    White paint on car? How do I get off?

    What could I use to get some white paint off of a car, it is coming off when I scrape it with a penny.White paint on car? How do I get off?
    Get a clay bar and get to work, will take the over spray off and leave your finish unharmed.White paint on car? How do I get off?
    ';Mother's California clay bar'; and LOTZ of elbow grease! it will leave your paint in better condition than you have ever seen!





    After giving the entire body a good clay polish, follow it up with a coating of high tech Polymer or Teflon based polish to protect the finish from future attacks from the painters, birds, tree sap and other assorted forms of fallout which assault your pretty metal.
    Use some light polishing compound followed by a good quality wax. I have done this several times.

    Can I apply POR-15 underside of the car with out take off the original paint of chassis?

    You can apply it to the underside without stripping, but POR-15 has many stripping solevents and they work like a charm. Go fork out the extra money and strip the surrounding area, make things look nicer.Can I apply POR-15 underside of the car with out take off the original paint of chassis?
    POR-15 adheres to rusted metal best.
