most of the paint is off but theres some globs of it that wouldn't come off unless i scratch it off with my nails carefully. is there a better way to remove it its the rubber trim that botheres me the most.
 
I would like to have seen the look on your face when you came out to your car. Yikes!



I would use paint thinner on the rubber. Just dress it right away with a protectant. I fear that due to the porous nature of rubber, you won't ever get all of it out. You might want to consider a rubber dye like Forever Black.



I would take off the mirrors and take out the lamps to clean around them.



The last leg of this journey is going to be the longest. Good luck.
 
i think i did the best i could. i was going to bring it to nydetailer to detail it.but his in S.I and they just raised the toll to 9 bucks. and my friend wanted to test out the PC. gave it shot. it turned out great i think this is best i can do.
 
yeah i actually saw the whole thing happend i confronted him. and he claimed it wasn't his fault cuz he ran the can of paint of in the street. not that he actually hit my car. the paint splattered onto another brand new truck. the owner of the truck came back and saw it and confronted him too he denied it too. so the owner took a 2x4 and bashed the cement truck windows. he got arrested and but later on the charges was droped. ne ways. i talked to ny detailer through PM he said he could help me. this are how it look. it doesn't look like that ne more if u checked out the other thread.
