The young kid that I work with decides to back the peterbilt tandem in front of the shop and do some touch up painting on the anhydrous ammonia tanks mounted on the back. This process, done with an air gun, is upwind of my truck.  So here I am with a slightly speckled BLACK truck. I tried rubbing it with paint thinner, and it works but you I have to rub very hard and it is painstakingly slow, not to mention probably not real good for the clearcoat. Any products out there that'll work better? Ideas? Thanks.

I used clay magic it was under $10 at pep-boys. Just one note, keep it well lubed. The clay can leave streaks if you don't. Good luck,

He was using grey primer. Body clay wouldn't touch it, but laquer thinner did. I rinsed with water and re-waxed and you can't tell where it happened. I bet a two part paint product would be a pain to remove, just hope it dried in the air before it hit your paint.
