I just bought an '04 6MT G35 Coupe in Pearl white and I've had it less than a week. This weekend I went to a small par 9 golf course. When I was finished, I went back to my car and someone threw a paintball or shot one at the back of my car. The paint dripped down and now there's a green streak going down the back of my car from the bottom of my back light to the bottom of the bumper. It's not extremely noticable, but it is noticable. I've tried using car wash soap, rubbing compound, and L.O.C. to try to get it out, but it won't get out. Does anyone know how to or have any ideas of how to remove this stain???? any information would really help!

 

Paintballs are made of water soluble paint... so I couldnt imagine it leaving permanent marks on your car unless its a dent.

I have one, so I know what im talking about. Maybe its something else that dripped and you confused it with the paintball paint? I doubt the paintball thrown or shot at your car was the cause of this stain.

 

i think he is talking about the stain left after he washed the paint off...kind of like the bug goop or bird poop that stains white cars. i would try tar and bug remover. it comes in a black and white can and you can get it at your local auto parts store.

 

Yea I paintball too and I know what it is. There were paintballs laying around my car and there was a small paintball splatter on my car and it dripped down. I don't understand why I can't get out the streak as well. It's like embedded in the paint or something.

 

try a clay bar dude....

 

i don't think a claybar will help, they only remove surface contaminants...stains like those usually need to fade on their own or some kind of solvent needs to be used.

 

I went to Wal-Mart and bought some Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and it worked awesome! so if anyone needs to remove paintball off their car, use some of that stuff! thanks for the help people!

 

my car was getting small stains on the rear bumper from armor all used for the tires. i know what you mean about it being imbedded in. I had to actually use compound to get it off, thank god its in a small unnoticeable spot... carefull if do you use compound that you dont burn yoru paint.


OOPS didnt see that you fixed it arleady lol

 

clay bars rule...

 

hahaha mr clean eraser works wonders

 

Clay Bar Works , Read The Instructions ..i Would Stay Away From Majic Eraser ...cLAY Bar Is Tried And Tru Remember To Wax After It Strips Everything Off

 

+1...you can use it on all kinds of things
