    So I’m not to concerned about being able to have the paint bugged out, but the abs plastics I’m afraid will discolor with any solvent I try to use.
    Long battle ahead with filing a state claim, and my insurance won’t waive my deductable until the state contractor claims responsibility!! BS!!

    Somebody help. Lol. 32749006-B535-4139-A793-DD67DAC541DB.jpg32749006-B535-4139-A793-DD67DAC541DB.jpgDC6B6CFA-DE4B-49A4-B717-3C9D051E0121.jpg70792CF7-844E-4F36-8B37-BCDF09F3BA4B.jpg7595EBC2-8A22-4569-8421-5F3F761C65DA.jpgAF386CF9-F18A-457B-AC7D-8782C777F4FE.jpgFF4912CD-C32D-4D32-A66A-EE0123F71DC3.jpg

    Hey man sorry to hear about your DOT paint situation. As a retired professional detailer I have seen this all too often and although DOT paint is a bear it can be removed with an aggressive clay bar and a can of Xyzlene (used separately not in conjuction). Both can be used safely on ABS and both are also safe on your clearcoat. Experience using these methods is key so I recommend either taking it to a local detailer or do a bit of research on these products if you will be doing the clean up yourself. PM me if you'd like some further advice I'm here to help
