Orange Paint Explosion

[reardiff]

So this is a mystery... Somehow somewhere I must have ran over some paint, thinking possibly a spray paint can based on the volume and splatter pattern.  Unfortunately it's bright orange and looks horrible from underneath.  Good thing is it's entirely underneath and didn't get on the paint, wheels or steps. Just a dot or two on the tire but other than that not visible unless you look underneath.   Now the question is how in the world do you go about cleaning this up? It's all over the transmission pan, heat shield, ,Transfer case, driveshaft...  Tried rubbing it with paint thinner and various cleaners, goo gone, etc.. but nothing is working.  The frame, sway bar and anything black I can paint over with some black spray paint, but everything else I have no idea, or maybe just leave it since it's purely cosmetic? Just glad it's not visible unless you look underneath.

I guess 1 option is get a spray can of paint stripper....

[reardiff]

Thought about that but wasn't sure if that would be good for plastics, bushings, gaskets, etc.. Unless I was just cautious with where it was sprayed and didn't get carried away with it.

Spray paint over it

I'd just leave it, some of it will go away on it's own. With winter here the salt on the roads might slowly eat at it.

Sad thing is the salt will probubaly rust the rockers and rest of the body out while the orange paint will keep the underside looking new.

I would just spray paint what is black and what is silver paint it silver.

 

Spray paint is not going to hurt the rubber, plastic etc.
