Hello,

I'm Daniel, new to AGO, from Canada. Been lurking on the forum but decided to finally sign up as i have a few questions and require some help. To give you some background, i do renovations for a living but been detailing cars when i few younger; finally getting some time and want to get back into it as i enjoyed it.

My first question, my daily 2006 dodge ram work truck was at my mechanics and had its engine replaced. While at the shop my mechanic was undercoating a vehicle and spraying bed liner. Black bed liner over spray got on my driver side fender. I would like to remove but don't want to ruin my original paint. I tried clay bar but unfortunately it didn't work, also tried Presta super cut with cutting pad that my mechanic had at his facility. No luck, is my only option to wet sand?...Im currently planning to buy some detailing products to update my inventory but still reading up what i should get or what will work for me. Im open to suggestions so i know what to get so i can remove the overspray and make my work truck look brand new.
Hopefully picture of the overspray shows up below:


Second question, my oem wheels are heavily oxidized, any recommendations on removing the oxidation from my 20inch stock alloy wheels? Im debating about getting them refinished but until then i would like to try what i can do on my own first.

Thank you all for your time. I'm open to suggestions, also I'm still in the process of researching more products but stuff i found on YouTube about cleaning oxidized rims is quite ridiculous...some people use stove cleaners to get it removed which i think is crazy. Im planning to keep this truck so not going that route.

Maybe talk to mechanic and see if there is something he uses to clean up the same issue with.

Stoners Xenit is a cleaner that is often recommended by Mike P for removing stubborn road paint so it may work for this.

Stoner® XENIT Natural Citrus Mold Cleaner THE FASTEST WAY TO CLEAN DIFFICULT GRIME! Intense orange cleaner, stoner cleaner, all purpose cleaner,

For the wheel, is the clear finish coming away from the polished outer sections on the wheel and rough feeling?

If so, it's probably done for. If not, try a light polish or an AIO/cleaner wax on it.

Yes,the clear coat finish is coming off in the center of each rim where the dodge logo sits... Figured if i can make them look decent i won't have to get them redone as this is only my winter set but it looks i might not have a choice.

Got to love Canadian winters, they truly destroy everything.

Regards to overspray my mechanic didn't really provide me with much help, he's useless when it comes down to paint finish and taking care of overspray.

I'll definitely look into that product. Thank you.
