"Bonded tot he clearcoat"

By my thinking, that means you're screwed.

This is speculation, but I suppose that mens that the solvent in the paint softened the clearcoat so that it could share molecules with the paint.

No way to fix that other than sanding it out.

But like MACS said........he's over it......no sense in me head-aching about someone else's problems.

if its an oil based primer, it doesn't have the ability to disrupt the molecular structure of the cured urethane.

try the oven cleaner. it has succesfully removed alkyds that have been bonded for tens of years without harming a cured finish, after all, thats what was used to coat the inside of an oven...........................

Merely buy the wife a new car and take a beating on the resale of this car since it is damaged goods. Then it will be someone else's problem. Nothing if you're a stepper. Seriously, you might try a teflon spatula.

Take it to a reputable body shop. Right away. I had the same thing happen, and the paint had dried on - morons from the City came by and sprayed the curb yellow and the side of my car with it - with road surface paint! I tried polishing compound, rubbing compound, nothing, but the City adjuster said to take it to a body shop - they had special chemicals to get the paint off with no other damage, cost $100 (reimbursed by the city). But $100 isn't bad vs. ruined paint job!

The oven cleaner works on hot chrome pipes to remove rubber and other soil as well. Did this when my woman's clunky/sexy rubber-soled shoes melted. I later purchased boards to solve the problem forever. lol

Thanks TG,

I am about to try some laquer thinner, since I have it handy.

It really can't hurt the finish on a 1998 Dodge pickup too bad. But if I wanted a two tone truck I would have bought a two toned truck. 🌫

Thanks again

Welcome.

Didn't someone post earlier in the thread that lacquer thinner was bad for the clear coat though?
