alright im pretty scared. i was workin on my car (installing longtube headers) and when i got up i accidently held on to part of the car and now there are imprints of oil there and i wanna know how i can get it out! :sosad
 
You might even consider just doing a full wash. I'd rather spend time washing (and maybe even using a paint cleaner and rewaxing) than risk permanent issues.
 
yeah i tried washing it but its still there =[ like when i scratch at it with my nail, i can see it going away but i was wonderng what could get it out asap

Same 'ol same 'ol that I try for most anything: first I'd try clay and if that didn't do it I'd use the mildest paint cleaner/polish on hand. Then rewax.

It shouldn't be too hard to remove. I'd think a paint cleaner or even a cleaner wax would do the trick. If all else fails you can try something simple like Windex, but you'll have to rewax that area.
