SummaryA Ford Focus parked near decorating work in Slough was left speckled with fine paint overspray across the bonnet, roof and upper panels. Our paint spill and overspray removal safely lifted the speckles — through careful decontamination and clay work — without damaging the underlying paint.
The challenge
Overspray is a fine mist of paint that lands and bonds to the surface as tiny rough specks — you can feel it as a gritty texture across otherwise smooth panels. It won't wash off, and aggressive attempts to remove it risk marring the clear coat. It needs a methodical, paint-safe approach.
How we solved it
- Washed and assessed the extent of the overspray across the panels
- Used clay and dedicated decontamination to lift the bonded specks from the surface
- Worked panel by panel, checking the paint remained unharmed
- Finished with a light polish where needed and a protective layer
The resultThe overspray was fully removed, leaving the paint glass-smooth and clear again — no trace of the speckling and no damage to the finish. The owner avoided what could have been a costly respray.
