    The fastest way would be a clay bar -- but it depends how bad the paint is and how long it`s had to cure.

    1. Wash the car (you never know).
    2. A clay bar. Try a medium/hd grade if necessary. If you use a medium or coarser grade, you will definitely need to follow with a polish.
    3. Mineral spirits.
    4. Methyl Hydrate.
    5. Lacquer thinner on a base/clear system; Reducer on a Urethane Enamel system.
    6. Wet sand and polish.

    That is from least agressive to most agressive. Start with the least. By #5 & #6, you are into a pro job. Also, do a search on "house paint" and you`ll see some other discussions on that.
