Best Answer

You could try a bit of rubbing alcohol. It works pretty well on non-porous surfaces. If it has soaked into the surface, you may have to use a mild buffing compound, but this can have a negative effect on the overall surface and if you aren't careful you could go through the paint.

Will caustic soda burn car paintwork?

Probably to some extent. Oil based base paint is acidic in nature, so I imagine sodium hydroxide will break it down - but you will be removing it layer-by-layer this way. Causic soda (NaOH, or Sodium Hydroxide) is a strongly alkaline solution. Car paint is applied in a kind of large over. There is generally a base layer, and a finishing coat. If you plan on using caustic soda, remember it is called 'caustic' for a reason. It will cause painful chemical burns to your skin on contact. If you do come in contact with caustic soda, you should use a mild acid to neutralise it (like vinegar [ethanoic/acetic acid]) Trying to wash off caustic soda will only make matters worse. If you want to remove car paintwork, you are best applying some kind of solvent - for example, paint stripper. Preferably one that is specifically designed for the purpose. All such products are extremely volatile, and give off strong fumes - and are probably quite nasty. It is also possible to burn off paint, but again it probably results in toxic fumes. For those planning on vandalising someone's car, please don't. Vandalism is the activity of a mentally deficient, mindless, sub-peasant halfwit.

Why do people use car wax on their cars?

I wax my car firstly to protect the paintwork. If I don't wax it then oxidation and weathering can irreversibly damage the paintwork to the point where no amount of wax will make it shine nicely. I have seen nasty cars with faded horrible paintwork (especially red cars for some reason) and I never want my car's paintwork to look that awful. If I go to a car wash it will come out very nice with still the protective layer of wax maintaining the paintwork underneath
