ARGH!!! Road Paint!
Well....anyone who lives in Ontario, Canada knows that here, there are only 2 seasons: Winter....and Construction.
Was on my way home the other day and to my dismay, a crew was on the road re-painting the lines. Not just the dividing lines but, the crosswalk lines too.
Anyway, I thankfully got only a li'll bit of the yellow paint on the inside of the front fenders and a little bit of "over spray" by the bottom of the doors.
I sure hope that SOMEONE in here can tell me that there is a cleaner out there that can "git-er-done"

I can tell you now road paint is a bitch to get offat work i use the laqure thinners and even that take a long time. and i can also tell you the longer you wait the harder it will get.
honesty go to crappy tire get a small can of thinners. put it on a old rag and start scrubbing. if you wax your car normaly, remember to rewax because it will remove it.
thankfully tho your paint will be ok

My wife once drove her black Ford Exploder through high reflective white/silver road paint. The kind that is used in a school zone. The wingnuts had dropped 5 gallons of it off the back of their painter and never knew it. A few mils of it lasts on the street for years. It was an inch deep puddle. She had globs on her tires, wheelwells, and slings over the lower body.
I don't know how the other stuff works. Claybar wouldn't come close. Acetone and a lot of scrubbing with a cloth got it off without compromising the clearcoat. A lot of scrubbing.
