What's the fastest and effective way to remove oil off paint? I just happened to drive through a long ass oil spill thinking it was wet tire marks buuuuut it was oil. Saw the tanker spilling it when I turned the corner. Got most of it off pressure washing it but its still there. Any ideas? Besides aircraft stripper Jared.

Pressure washer with a burner or dish soap. Orrrrrrr you could get a paper towel and matches then burn the leftover oil residue off.

Passenger side is the worst. I'm gonna try soap and water first.

I used WD40 on mine when I ran thru some oil a couple weeks ago, it worked great and didn't seem to mess anything up. I just went to the car wash and sprayed it on the truck then took a rag and wiped it down. Then washed it like normal and it turned out good. Good luck tho!
 
any degreaser will work. wash the area and re-wax after. why the fuck would you use easy off oven cleaner........ :facepalm3:

Diesel fuel is also a a good alternative to dissolve the oil. Soak an old towel or rug in it and rub gently on the surface. Wash it thoroughly and apply wax.
