my wife ran through some red paint on the road the other day and now it is all on the rocker panel on the left side of the car.how can i get it off without messing my own paint up.

 

Turpentine and a copper brush should do the trick. Scrub hard.

Seriously though..........you may have some luck with a rag that is damp with paint thinner.

Other than that, I suggest you simply paint your whole car with the same color red.

 

Try goof off it works great on dry paint that you want off. I had black paint on my silver Blazer and it came right off and didnt hurt the factory paint. Do try it 1st on a spot you cant see as good just in case it does mess the factory paint it wont be seen. But I had good luck a few times with it. Since I like to paint I get over spray on stuff all the time it works great for me.
