    Meguiars makes a product called #2.
    It is available at body paint suppliers.
    I had this happen with overspray from a neighbor spraying his wrought iron fencing beige
    and it landed on my black hood and roof.

    If thats what your dealing with...that's what worked for me w/o ruining the paint under it.
    #2 is a polish with mild abrasives...takes some time and I did it by hand so I didnt ruin anything.

    I'll pass the meguirs on. Don't know if that'll help. We'll see.

    As for filling in the blanks. Dummy thought it would be a good idea to sling the Farmbys wood sealer off the brush while he was standing beside his truck.

    I'm sure there was a case of beer involved, somewhere.
     
    Kujo Thanks this.

    Try lacquer thinner on a rag. If that doesn't work, then try acetone or xylene. Be careful with those, make sure they don't take the clearcoat with them.

    Yeah, those are best used without alcohol :) The lacquer thinner is the safest of them all, used that when I cleaned carpets to get ink and magic marker out of carpets.

    Try to get it ASAP, before the sealer 'cures'. Usually within 24 hours.

    Is it clear wood sealer, or stained wood sealer? If clear, I would just wet sand the raised edges till they blend, then some rubbing compound, polish, and wax.
    Stained, wet sand with a piece of sand paper on a popsicle stick. just hitting the stained areas, when the stain is gone then follow the above.
