My white S2 RS Turbo has been hiding away under a car cover for about 6 months now at the bottom of my driveway, however while it was moved so some work could be done on the house, the car cover was left off.. and some moron decided that was a perfect time to paint their fence green, with one of those DIY panit spraying things, in what must have been a hurricane force wind..

My car is now covered top to bottom in millions of little spots of green. I have tried various things to get it off.. T-cut does nothing, neither does the expensive Autoglym equivalent.. although yesterday i accidentally slpashed a spot of Methylated Spirits onto the wing, rubbed it off promptly and it took the green straight off!

So my question is, is Methylated Spirits too harsh to use all over my car to get rid of this stuff? I dont want to end up with a shiney silver car..

Cheers

 

Try using Brasso. Its a bit more harch than T-Cut and is ideal for stuff like like but don't rub too hard.

 

that sounds even more scary than Methylated Spirits... any other suggestions? The patch that ive done looks ok, i guess i could do it and then give it a damn good wash straight after..

 

I might be talking complete shite but try using cola ! it takes tar spots of a treat.

 

Honestly Brasso is brill alot of bodywork people use it. Its a bit more harsh than T-Cut and is great at getting rid of scratches.

 

use a cutting paste such as g3, its in big yellow bottle and made by a company called farecla

 

cheers guys

 

you can get that compound stuff they use in bodyshops, its like a pink paste it got black hammerite off my old saff no probs

 

I can't see methylated spirits causing damage.

Car paint is very hard wearing, and the green stuff is not going to be any where near as hard wearing
