Best way to remove over spray on a vehicle?

Anyone have remedy? Was staining/sealing my fence and it appears the wind carried the over spray a lot further than I thought. I tried Bug & Tar Remover.....did nothing.

Forget that. I will wipe it down in 5" squares with MEK and rinse it off as I go if it comes to that.

Try a nice clay bar wipe down. That's what they made clay bars for specifically.

Try clay bar. If not, machine compounding it might be the only thing

Goof Off. Works all the time.

Clay Bar....... get ready to do some rubbing
ETA; I work in an industrial area where we get painted on daily. Go to Wal-Mart and get the mothers clay bar kit and a pack of microfiber towels. You will also need to re wax after.
Wash-Clay Magic-Wash-Wax...... its at least a 4-6 hour process.

Yea dude. I got you covered. Or you can check out my friend's website. He does mobile detailing and is extremely professional.

Clay bar will do it.

We had a mobile guy here who was pretty badass. He retired though so I started looking for someone else to refer customers to. 4 years ago, the firestone plant parking lot had about 200 cars covered with white overspray from Citgo. They brought them all to us.
I called around and somebody suggested Belts Plus in Lake Charles. I didn't know they had a detail shop in the back. I talked to the owner and subcontracted all the work to them. They did a bang up job and now I send everyone to them. Their prices can not be beat.

My friend who runs that one I linked just got his own covered trailer so he is now 100% mobile. He has a 125 gallon water tank, Honda quiet generator, mounted pressure washer, and a mounted air compressor. It's quite the setup.
I'm sure you've noticed that professional mobile detailers completely blow body shop detail work out of the water. I've seen numerous vehicles get gutted by body shops. My brother's own paint job that I corrected to 75% was butchered after going to the body shop to replace a dented door. I told them not to touch the paint but they did it anyway.
But, by no means am I implying that your shop does any of this. It's just quite frustrating to see buffer trails on a formerly clear paint job.

Stain/sealer is a 1K product.
Laquer thinner will take it off easily.
MEK is a little too strong.
You'll need to buff and polish it after.

Xylene on a soft rag works for paint.

If this was the OT, I would tell you sandpaper.
Since it is not the OT, I will tell you NOT sandpaper.
