A little thinner perhaps. Dont soak it though. Buff it if thinner doesnt woek.

If you value your paint, do this:
Go to the local auto parts store or an auto detailing store, and buy a clay bar kit. Wash the area down, spray it with detail spray, and use the clay bar to collect the overspray. This will clean it off without marring the good paint underneath.

Fail ?? How long you been painting? 15 years here and a damp thinner rag works everytime. But I just noticed he said "DOORPANEL" so it should just scrub off.

use terpinetine instead of lacquer thinner. its easier on the paint under neath. a clay bar may not work because the overspray has been there awhile and has probably cured.

Try whatever but you may need wet sand and buff.

95% of you FAIL!!! Seriously did any of you MORONS read his post. IT IS ON HIS DOOR PANEL! Seriously we have this issue every now and then and we always get good results by using some lacquer thinner on a paper towel and just getting the overspray slight moist and wiping it off.

+10000000, laquer thinner will get it right off, just dont soak the door panel in it or it may pull out the dye and discolor it

the right way would be buying a clay bar kit from the auto store.my shop do alot of highend cars and when we get overspray on a car we dont run to a can of thinner.

Reading comprehension clearly owns you. Way to get all cocky and spout off at the mouth in broken English. ^E-Thug right there Ladies and Gentleman.
LOL: My shop do alot!
You mean the shop that you work at, not "My shop," (I'm sure the owner appreciates you trying to take credit for HIS shop) DOES a lot of high end cars. Apparently you work at such a quality shop that you get overspray on cars quite frequently.
