so when i went to hooters a few weeks ago to watch ufc 116... GO LESNAR!! btw.. lol
i drove over a puddle of restaurant grease.. this grease got on my paint and i didnt think much of it so i didt clean it off right away.. pretty bad idea but i didnt know any better..
anyways.. now.. a few weeks after the incident the grease just dosent wanna come off.. idk too much about paint and stuff so idk what i can and cant use.. i just wanna get this grease off without damaging my paint or my bank account. lol...
any ideas?

try using a little bit of carnuba wax on a microfiber towel and rub a bit, not to hard, but with light pressure..

Try Goo Gone or De-Solv-It, you can get either of these at Walmart and neither will hurt your paint.

Glad to hear it worked but I wouldn't use or recommend using nail polish remover on car paint.

I hope you used a non acetone nail polish remover. Another easier option would have been to use a high concentration of liquid dish soap like Dawn as a wash solution. Just think about how it cleans grease off pans, it would do the same on your paint. Isopropyl alcohol and a diluted all purpose cleaner would work as well.

i would have said purple power it...purple power, mean green, etc are all degreasers...so that with some ajax or dawn dish detergent would have been awesome
