Oh shit. I had this happen to my integra....ran over some paint some had spilled on the road and it splattered the entire side of my integra.

Long story short, you might be able to get it buffed out, but in my case, it was so bad, I had to take it to a body shop to get it sanded off, and have the clear coat reapplied.

House Paint

Most likely, it was latex paint - you should confirm whether it was latex or oil base. If it was latex paint, it can be removed with rags dampened with hot water and sprayed with a stong household cleaner like Fantastic. It may take a bit of light rubbing but it will probably remove it. If it was oil base paint, you could try rubbing lightly with a rag dampened with normal house paint thinner (do not use lacquer thinner).
