Default overspray... solutions?

well had my car for about 3 weeks now and discovered some small portion of oversprayed paint on the bottom side of my passenger door.. as far as i know, the previous owner replaced the rocker panel in the past from a slight accident, and i thnk the body shop he went to did a shitty ass job masking off the door during painting process. It's not THAT noticeable but still bothers me and would rather not have it.

would wet sanding make it any better? any solutions? or am i just out of luck

thanks!

The clay bar is specifically used for removing paint overspray. Any brand will work fine. Use a scratch/swirl remover afterwards to bring it to 100%, but of course is not necessary.

If it won't come off and it's baked on, try the scratch remover. If its still there, then go with the 2000 grit wet sand and a buffer after.

Dont sand it. Just use a good claybar and it will come off in a Jiffy.
