Traded some paint with a car
So yesterday I got hit while cruising. This Honda (I know really??) was coming out of a local sports bar and right as I passed he just hits the gas to early. Me and my friend think he must have been drunk. He hits me dead on the tire and my car is knocked sideways a little and I recover but it sure scarred the crap out of the SUV that was right behind me in the other lane, mind it scarred the crap out of me too. So I look back as I finally get control and the guy is flooring it down the road. So no insurents to fix the car. Anyway I get out and there is no dent or anything just a nice bit of paint on the tire and rear panel. I got it check over at a shop just to make just everything was good and it was.
So finally my question is does anyone have any good ideas on how to get this paint off? I believe it's above the clear coat cause I've take off a good bit of it but some of it is really sticking to it. I've used some liquid clay bar and it seem to be working the best out of what I have tired. Would a real clay bar work better? Anyone got some tips to help me out?

I have taken off paint with paint thinner and a cloth towel but make sure not too rub it too hard or it could damage your paint too.

Re: Traded some paint with a car
i think you can have it buffed with a machine, it should rub or burn the paint off. buffing ur car like that works wonders. you can try paint thinner but i think it might be to risky.
p.s did u get any of the douch hondas info or see his plates? i would've floored it broken car and all to catch up to him and give him a good 'ol fashioned *** whoopin.
good luck

Yeah a real clay bar might remove it. I would probably try that before moving onto other alternatives.
