    Removing Graffiti on Paint

    In another forum someone had their car vandalized with taggers...he was asking how to get this off...I have a graffiti remover from Sprayway that works wonders...however he was looking for something OTC...I suggested some mineral sprint..others said WD40....I know lacquer thinner will but that`s not for the inexperienced....so I didn`t post that.

    I didn`t think that clay was something to start with...to much paint to use clay on.

    What are some of the suggestions here?

    Why not some PrepSol/Prep-All or 3M Adhesive remover?

    Almost any liquid, solvent based, express wax not sold in California will work with ease -- they are sold under various names like sunrise glaze, fast wax, express wax, seal brite, new car prep wax, etc. They are solvent based (kerosene or touline) go on easy, come off easy, leave behind a great sheen and will remove the spray paint without damaging the automotive finish.

    Coming from one of the best in SOCAL that`s the bible!!

    Mineral spirits in this case would be good right?
