Dhendry Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Hi guys Can anyone help? Had some liquid poured on my car, it's clear looking, it's ran down the paintwork and can't remove it. Tried petrol, and other household bits. Any ideas? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laumk7 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 I can't think what it is, it's definitely been poured though hasn't it, hmm. To remove I'd be inclined to try tcut or a polish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhendry Posted August 21, 2016 Author Share Posted August 21, 2016 Yep, thinking it might be super glue :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what to do with that though, as I'd imagine it would burn through the paint and be impossible to remove without repainting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Nail polish remover takes off superglue, but not sure how it would react on car paintwork. just a suggestion dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexp999 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 You can get superglue remover, but I'm thinking anything strong enough to remove superglue, could damage the lacquer and/or paint. Might be worth going to a local bodyshop and see what they think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btmaldon Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Try Nail Polish remover that does not contain Acetone. Try it somewhere you cant see first though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhendry Posted August 23, 2016 Author Share Posted August 23, 2016 Thanks for the advice. Superglue has been removed using nail varnish remover with acetone. Did an initial test under the bonnet and no paint was removed. Had to give the panel a real good polish after to restore the colour, used autoglym for this. Thanks for the suggestions.
