My wife has just informed me (b/c she knows I am going to clean the car today) that she ran through a big mound of cement the other day. The area was wet, but the cement was a powder.

You can guess what is now stuck to the bottom sides of my car now I tried just spraying water, but its still there when the water dries. I am afraid of totally scratching the paint as this stuff feels very abrasive. Its also white now in the wheel wells on the passenger side f and r.

Anybody got any ideas how I can make the best of this. I have already yelled her (wife) and that didnt seem to help much.

Any OTHER ideas...

 

Unless somebody comes up with a better idea, consider this: Muriatic acid (hydrochloric) has long been used as a cement floor cleaner. Get some and dilute it to less than 0.5% (if the acid starts at say, 10% then dilute it another 20 fold) and use a cloth soaked in it to gently wipe the areas involved have a garden hose handy to rinse it off after each application. If this seems to be working with no ill effects but you'd like it a little more effectively, try more concentrated solution. Of course the wheel well can take it but just be careful on the painted areas. You won't need gloves with 0.5% unless you hand very sensitive skin.

 

No clue, Good luck. I'm gonna put this in wash and wax.

 

Ouch...sorry to hear that man, and good luck with getting that out, it's not going to be an easy task (sorry, I can't give any helpful advice).

 

clay... try claying the car, it would probably would as the cement shouldn't ahve set on the paint if you had a coat of wax on there before.
