#208511 Road_Hawg (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1397 Re:I've been oversprayed... Please Help!!!! 2 Years, 7 Months ago   Just talked with my detail guy. For what it would cost to do it and shipping, it would not be feasible for you to go that route, at least not shipping it here to do it. I would go after the spray painter to buy you a new one. In fact, I would make him pay for a new paint job too. And don't forget your chrome, seats, handle grips, and anything else that has overspray on it. Hope he has insurance to cover it.   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/07/02 18:40 By Road_Hawg.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #208559 Curt (Moderator) Never to old to ride!

I have found it very good on painted surfaces so it very well might work on the windshield too.   Logged     My Site Black Ice is Shiny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #208563 Roadiepilot (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 72 Re:I've been oversprayed...

Please Help!!!! 2 Years, 7 Months ago   meguiars clay bar and quick detailer. it will def. work on all the paint. I would try a small section of the windshield to see if it will work there also. Just remember to wax it after you use it on paint.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #208577 Darn (User) Don't forget, Never forget. Platinum Boarder Posts: 6914 Re:I've been oversprayed... Please Help!!!! 2 Years, 7 Months ago   I'd say don't touch a speck of it. Let insurance pay for everything to be cleaned to perfection and let them go after Mr.Painter. If he is not insured, he will be sued by them, or the building owner will have to use his property insurance. Either way, you get it all cleaned and or replaced. New or like new? File the claim. Oh yeah, if you need to pay the deductible, suit the painter for that too + costs! Oh one last thing.... buy a cover!   Logged     Free, personalized tra   The administrator has disabled public write access. #208588 Makcap (User) How boring it would be if we were all the same Platinum Boarder Posts: 1724 Re:I've been oversprayed...

It penetrates deep in the pours. If you googone I would clay bar and then wax after if it works. I know Mcguiers came out with a headlight restore kit might want to try that on the shield.

If you start the job and it makes it worse, the insurance company may walk away and say it is your problem. I store my bike in a storage area in the winter and have always used a cover. Your bad luck will ensure I continue that practice. Good luck!   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #208624 Road_Hawg (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1397 Re:I've been oversprayed...

My detail guy said clay bar would work on the windshield in terms of getting the paint off, but it would leave the windshield opaque (hazy). He also said it depends on the type of paint on how successful it would be, how long it had been on there, and it may cause deformation in terms of viewing. Too many variables in my book. I am in the don't mess with anything camp until insurance (yours or his)has looked at it.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #208625 Road_Hawg (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1397 Re:I've been oversprayed...

I personally fly 172's and 182's, but I use my detailer for a Citation and a 421 that I manage. I haven't flown in a long time though, I can't afford it. Too many other toys. Bass boat, motorcycle, Mustang. My aircraft detailer knows his stuff, he is the best, and he says taking paint off the windshield would depend on a lot of things, (see above post). Too many variables to guarantee success. It would at the least leave it without the coating.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #208705 Big Dawg (User) On the road again . . . Platinum Boarder Posts: 1130 Re:I've been oversprayed... Please Help!!!! 2 Years, 7 Months ago   I agree, let the insurance company get involved. I also like that you've got the city inspector coming by to check out the situation. BD   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access.
