So I had my MB FD setting outside for a couple of days and my next door neighbor decided to spray paint his patio furniture royal blue. Now I have this fine coat of royal blue on all the horizontal surfaces and down one side of my car. I got it off all the glass, but I don't know the best way to get it off the painted surfaces. Any suggestions...other than kill my next-door neighbor?

Wow that sucks Audie. Have you talked to your neighbor yet?
Might check with your local body shop and see if it could be buffed out.
Maybe let the neighbor know of the mistake to avoid future mishaps. Who knows they might even pay for it to be professionally cleaned.
Never hurts to ask. Worst they could say is "no" right?
Good luck.

Foam blocks??? Haven't heard of that. And either of these will remove paint?

Wow, I would be livid. That's why my baby sleeps in the garage. I've never heard of the foam before. I would try a clay bar and see how that works for you. If not get into contact with a good detailer and they'll be able to get it off without a problem.

I had a detail shop for years and now I am in the refinishing end of things ( just not cars anymore )

clay, foam, solvent even. i would just try everything easiest short of cutting and buffing
but i would definately go after your neighbor an get a detail out of the deal at a local shop
