Paint over spray

Personally i did a black Merc S550 that had some white over spray on it. it wasn't too bad but definitely noticeable. I first clayed it, (car had never been clayed) Then I used a medium/high compound with a foamed wool pad. that got it all off for me. not too sure what yours is like but try that
 
if you are finding clay is working but just extremely slow, try an aggressive clay.
 
I once removed my tail lamps to clean behind them and the amount of overspray there was horrendous!!!

It was so severe that it disintegrated the clay right away which didn't even touch it! Eventually I tried plastic razor blades but they weren't any good too!

Should I leave it like that or get a metal razor out!?
(This spot is behind the tail lamps and isn't visible unless one removes the tail lamps!)

I would just leave it. I don't think anyone will be removing your tail lamps to inspect them anytime soon lol I wonder if your car was repainted and that's how the over spray got back there
 
So I just got back from the over spray removal. Took me and my brother 4 hours for both vehicles. Claying took the overspray right out. I didnt even have to use the more aggresive griots clay. For the plastic parts had to use alot of elbow grease (not sold in stores), a little scrubbing brush & some Xenit. My client was pleased with the job & I got some advertising in thanks to all the curious neighbors lol I didnt get to take pics of overspray but here are the end results.

The fact that you went least aggressive speaks volumes.
Your progression is impressive, and so is your resolve. Keep up the good work:props:
