Spray Paint....HELP

OK so I go out to wash my car today and realize all of these orange dots ALL over my car. My Dad was using orange spray paint around my car about 2 days ago. He said he thought he was far enough away but obviously not.

So scattered across my car are tiny orange dots from the spray paint. What would be the best way to remove those dots....you can scrape them off with your fingernail but it is ALL over. Would a clay bar be the best way to remove them? Let me know what you guys think.

YES, and plenty of lube. Knead the clay frequently. Polish, & seal.....

That will work. A little on the light side but it will certainly help the matter.

Forgot to tell you guys...I went out and bought the Mothers kit. Worked great...took me three hours to do the whole car but turned out excellent. Now with some polish and sealer she will be back to new!

Great to hear! I heard claybar fixes overspray so it should have worked in your situation.
