I backed out of my garage one day and ran over a can of black spray paint that had fallen off the shelf.If a clay bar doesn’t work, I would damp a micro rag with clean acetone and give one stroke wipes. The paint on a mustang is a 2K paint and acetone will not attack it immediately. Most spray can paints will immediately dissolve with acetone.
Stay away from rubber and plastics. Don’t wash it with acetone! Damp rag only.
My daily a BMW, but paints are similar, got almost completely covered in droplets of road marking paint. Took 15min to remove with acetone. Then washed and polished car. Paint remained as new.
Always try a inconspicuous area first .
While I didn't mind the free undercoating too much, it nevertheless coated the entire right half of the body in fine black mist.
I called my pro detailer, and he suggested lacquer thinner, claiming that that is what pros use in dire situations, and that the 2k clearcoat can withstand it.
But I was too afraid, so after trying Dawn, and then lighter fluid, I tried some Stoner's Tarminator. I'm pretty sure this is the same as Acrisolve that the pros use. It did the trick. I then followed that up with a waterless wash method.
Acetone is the base for most spray paints, but I would never try acetone because I'm pretty sure it will eat the 2k clearcoat.
