oh boy this reminds me of my vandalized car
see here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/2393498...n/photostream/ to make the story short. There is no way that you will be able to take out the paint without damaging the finish of your car. I knew this first hand as the insurance company sent it out to a automotive restorer who specialized on vandalism and they did manage to take out the paint but ruined the finish of the plastic parts. If it it on a clothe surface the clothe has to be replaced as solvents will not work on the fabric and will discolor it. My car got written-off because of this as the total amount of work to be done exceeded $24,000 because literally ALL surface with paint needs to be replaced. Good luck with your ride but I guess you should be thinking of getting rid of it or keep it like that and run it like a beater car. Lesson to be learned...never ever put any paint inside your car and forget about it. |
