How Do I Get Road Paint Off Pic

I tried the stuff in the pic Bug and Tar Remover but it didnt do jack. I could spend several hours with my fingernails scraping it off but isnt there a better way?

You can try clay but I dont think it is going to remove it. You may have to bring it to a body shop to see if they have any strong chemical that will remove it

GreenNVicious can only hope to improve
i ran that over and my insurance (state farm) paid for a detail job on my ride. the guy at the detail shop said it was just for my road paint, i got it ALL on the side of my car, tires and rims. They gave me a full detail, inside and out, and i didnt have to pay squat for it.

Try Meguair's clear coat body scrub. Only certain places carry it. This will take out almost anything without hurning the paint.

Don't know if you've had any luck, but if the claybar didn't do the trick, get a rough sponge, and keep it wet with auto-solve, and scrub like a ****. Thats what we do at work, it takes some effort, but it will come off.
