Wife took the young fellow to see a movie in the next town over and I guess they had put down some new yellow lines. All over the side of the truck and the mirror is covered. How do I get this stuff off???

Thinner! LOL no dont do that. My buddy had this on his truck as well. we used Joe's hand cleaner from the auto parts store. It removes paint but didnt mess his paint up. Kind of like GoJo but better. clean it good and gently smudge it around. Itll come off

Does it matter how long it sits on there? I leave tomorrow to go moose hunting for a week. Don't really have time to fuss with it now.

Haha this it totally irrelevant..but the "yellow paint" made me remember...I was working on a new Walgreens store (electrician) and the parking lot guy had just finished painting his lines and such (yellow paint) well I had to move the dually and ran through 2 lines of his wet paint. I had tire tracks of yellow paint all the way around the parking lot...he wasn't too happy

When I got that paint on my work truck I used Diesel at work and WD-40 at home. Both worked. Diesel seemed to work a little better than WD-40 for me.
