yesterday as I was pulling out of the parking lot at my job I guess some assbag spilled joint compound and a good amount of it too. And then some other assbag (me) drove through it. This poop got all over the tire and down the side of the car. I managed to get it off of the rim but I cant get it off the tire or the side of the car cuz by the time I noticed it it was already dry. It is set on there like paint. I tried powerwashing it but that did not work. Any suggestions? Help would be much appreciated.

mineral spirits, takes off alot of stuff and won't hurt the paint, brake clean is the same way.

never knew that brake clean could be used on the paint....that seems like a good option. With the acetone in it, it would dry really fast with no residue. Good idea Jab ! :thumbsup:

i'd be careful using brake cleaner on the paint, i would think it would damage the clear coat.
