Will also eat the paint on the car though. Be careful, apply sparingly. Wax car afterwards as you've probably also taken a layer or two of clear coat with it.

It shouldn't.

You can put wax and grease remover on before a clear coat on a freshly sprayed car. I have done it myself many times.
After the paint goes on, you wet and dry the shine off and get it nice and flat, you need to clean the paint and a rag with prepsol then a tack cloth is just the thing.
Acrylic or two pack paint is not solvent in prepsol.

Maybe you are thinking of thinners.

was water based (i think), IPA took it off in like 20 minutes, then gave it a turtle wax. Was bumper to bumper on passengers side, some little cunt walking past holding the can. Was a real thick coat thou with the cunt being so close.

15 of the 20 mins was getting it out of door handles etc.

Good as gold now, just a cunty thing to have to deal with.

^I reckon.
Years ago I drove all the way from Tasmania to Brisbane and back over six weeks sleeping in my old coverted hiace. I parked up roadside all over the place and didn't have a hassle.

The day I get home, some fudgepackers tag wasssupp all over the side of my van.

5 minutes and a prepsol rag and it was gone.

I only discovered this prepsol / enamel spray thing because you use black enamel to trace spray putty or primer (on cars), sometimes there are pits with need spot filler.
You don't want the spot filler to trap the enamel. In cleaning the surface with prepsol, I noticed all the enamel gets dissolved but leaves everything else fine, including old paint.

It's also very handy for cleaning surfboards so I always have a stash...

I uploaded a short clip from How I met your mother in an attempt to find a song.. Which as it turns out, was written specifically for the show.

When I clicked 'I accept' or what ever it then took me to some page with a video on it explaining copyright, and I had to answer four multiple choice questions (very easy ones).

The best thing about Finance Minister Bill English\'s latest Budget is that it does finally signal a much greater role for the private sector in the New Zealand economy. And another step along the way to extract this country from the political cul-de-sac in which Helen Clark\'s Labour Government parked us.

There was a TV show...or a movie...or something, that watched kids interact with technology of yesteryear. They gave a 10yr old a Walkman. Kid didn't know what the fuck to do.

I think that I was very fortunate being born in the 80s. However, I am saddened when I realise I wont be around when man reaches its peak in technology.
