getting paint off vinyl siding

[Bassin Billy]

Well apparently one of our neighborhood kids decided to spraypaint the side of my house. Any suggestions on removing it? I haven't been able to do it with soap and water. Scared to use anything real strong as I don't want to damage the siding.

Power washer...just guessing.

Have you tried just scrubbing it with a rag soaked in paint thinner? It won't hurt the siding...it's PVC with the color mixed in and going all the way through.

I used to race stock cars and swaped paint occasionaly, try paint thinner first and lacquer thinner for stubborn spots just don't leave it on too long. Will get rid of paint, but will dry out vinyl.

Thanks for the tips guys. I will try the pain thinner first..

liquid bleach is what a siding guy told me to use. Hope it helps paint might be tricky

If it's not to old just replace the panel pretty easy fix there's a tool for removal of panels if it's not more than 10 or 15 years old you can match siding good luck

Best stuff money can buy, even removes silicone.

happened to me too on the side of my business with a sharpie.Best thing to use is
brakeklean but be careful only spray it on the rag and only rub where the marks are,if the siding is old it can dull it,but it took every bit of marker off,believe it or not wd-40 works too.
