whats the besy way to get rid of this primer overspray?? ive tried some soap and water (as primer is porous) with a medium bristle brush and it wont come off, i dont want to use anything too hard and ruin stuff, if you scrape it with your fingernail it will come off but i would be there for years doing it. i dont want to use anything too potent or abrasive. got a few days off work to try and get rid of it if i can.

Not sure you'll find any easy way...other than painting or coating over it.

What sort of primer was it ? If cellulose you might get lucky and cellulose thinners maybe take it off ?

no idea dude, i pulled of of my spray job. all the little clips ive taken off and soaked in hot soapy water and its come off ok.

Use a claybar. That's what claybars were originally designed for.

It'll get all that off, but it will ruin a good claybar, so use an old one or one you're happy to ruin.

Claybar IS abrasive, but it's the most gently abrasive you'll get so shouldn't cause any issues.

cool got a few claybars in the garage!

You''ll need plenty of lube and a few hours set aside to tackle that, but it'll do that job.

In terms of lube, a a decent, slippery shampoo in a bucket of water will do that job as obviously you'll need lots and you don't need to be quite as careful as you do when claying your nice, shiny paintwork, but will need a lot of it.

Let us know how you get on with a clay bar.

Any paint thinners should take that straight off, just be careful not to use to much as you'll take the paint off with it

as above thinners will do the job.

Petrol. let the paint harden off properly first and then use that to take off the excess.

2k thinnners on a cloth, light rub it off, then plenty water and rinse it

Panel wipe is safer if your not confident enough to wipe over with thinners...

Acetone!
It will take off the overspray without damaging anything else. Piece of cake.
