VHT Nightshade spot needs removal

My dumb*** was painting the mt.fuji emblem with VHT. I was to lazy to remove the badge so I taped it off and sprayed it on. Everything was fine until i started removing my maskoff paper and on accided got a splash of VHT on my trunk. That thing sunked into my paint so fast, i was able to get it off right away. Any suggestions on how to get it out? I'm going to try some paint thinner but its not looking so good now.

Can any one help? thanks

Try goo gone or rubbing compound. use it really quick and wax that part afterwards. I got black ink all over the rear bumper BMW 750 and the car is white if i may add. the only thing that removed it was Rubbing compound.

Optimum Compound I've found is pretty good stuff. Should do the trick. Maybe try a orange pad to start and move down to a white pad to remove the haze/swirls.

Don't use paint thinner on your clear coat...

Meguiars Ultimate Compound is pretty good. Also try a clay bar if it's raised at all.
