For the record, this is how my friend removed the paint:
1. Road tar remover to soften/loosen up the paint
2. Pressure washer on medium setting to blast off what he could
3. Bug pad to get what couldn’t be removed with pressure washer
He did say that my regular waxing helped to prevent the paint from sticking bad. He has had a much harder time removing paint from other cars in the past. He also said that something like M105 would be the next step if his plan A didn’t work, but that would have required a lot more time obviously for polishing etc. Thankfully, Plan A worked as a quick fix for now. My car is due for a full, in-depth exterior detail soon anyways…
My only hope is that this could help someone who has this happen to them, because I was really worried at first! But, it turned out to be not that big of a deal.
