Q:my friends sprayed my car bonnet roof with satin black spray cans will this stuff take it off back to its light blue
by|Sep 30, 2021
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  Natt, Motsenbocker's Lift Off Spray Paint & Graffiti Remover can be used to remove spray paint from a variety of surfaces. In order for it to work on the car bonnet roof, which appears to be porous, we recommend spraying on to the surface, letting it set for upward of 3-5 minutes, then agitating with a soft bristle brush. Depending on the amount of spray paint, you may need to repeat this process several times. We also recommend testing in an inconspicuous area first to test for color fastness of the bonnet, and doing this project in a covered area, out of the sun.

    A:  YOU CAN BUT DON'T LEAVE IT ON TO LONG IT CAN EVEN TAKE THE VARNISH OFF A FLOOR IF LEFT ON TO LONG 10 MINUTES MOST BUT YOU DO HAVE TO LEAVE IT ON AT LEAST THAT LONG FOR IT TO WORK JUST NOT LONGER

    by|May 22, 2018

      A:  Oh, it sure will take off the spots, but it will also take off the paint underneath, like it did when I used it to remove graffiti from my garage door!

      by|May 11, 2018

        A:  Yes, you can use this product for removing paint spots.

        by|May 13, 2018

          A:  Yes, you can use Lift Off Spray Paint and Graffiti Remover to remove spots that were caused by over spray. However, Lift Off needs to be applied cautiously to avoid impacting the base coat that you don’t want to remove. You may want to spray Lift Off Spray Paint and Graffiti Remover on to a clean, cotton towel and then using the towel to apply Lift Off on the spots. Gently agitate the areas where the spots are situated. You may need several applications to safely and effectively remove the spots. (A soft bristle brush, such as a tooth brush, may also help to break loose the paint after applying Lift Off Spray Paint and Graffiti Remover.)

            Q:Safe on carpet?

            2 Answers
            Answer This Question

            A:  Thanks for your question. Yes, Lift Off Spray Paint & Graffiti Remover can be used on carpets. Due to its water-based composition, it is safe on a variety of surfaces. (We do recommend, testing in an inconspicuous area first for color fastness.) You can spray directly on to the carpet; let it set for upward of three minutes; then use a clean, cotton towel, or a bristle brush (such as a tooth brush) to agitate the surface. This will help loosen the spray paint from the carpet. Repeat the process as needed.

            by|Dec 4, 2017

              A:  Yes, it is definitely safe on carpets. You can spray directly on to the carpet (let is set upward of 3 minutes) and agitate the paint spill with a tooth brush. This will help with the removal process.

              Q:Can this be used to remove tar paper left on hardwood floors?
              by|Nov 29, 2017
              2 Answers
              Answer This Question

              A:  A product that I would recommend for this type of project is Motsenbocker's Lift Off Tape, Label and Adhesive Remover. It is designed to remove sticky, greasy and oily stains and residue and is safe for wood surfaces. You can spray directly on to and around the black tar paper; let it set for upward to three minutes; then use a scraper to break the bond between the paper and the wood surface. Depending on the thickness of the paper, this make require several applications.

              by|Nov 30, 2017

              A:  We would recommend you use Motsenbocker's Lift Off Tape, Label and Adhesive Remover, which is capable of removing sticky, greasy and oily stains, such as tar. It is also safe on hardwood floors. We recommend you also have plastic scrapers and clean, cotton towels for this project. You can spray on Lift Off Tape, Label and Adhesive Remover; let is set for upward of three minutes, then use the scraper to help release the tar paper. The cotton towel provides a clean surface for removing any remaining residue.

                Had my car painted at a nationwide chain and when I got it back, there was green paint over-spray here and there on the Saab Aero wheels. They had an "off" and uneven green glow. So I found this Motsenbocker's Lift Off #4 Spray Paint Graffiti Remover at Home Depot and it works wonderfully. I followed the instructions, left the spray on for 60 seconds then wiped clean with a new white terry towel, then washed with clean water. For some spots I did a second application. Now the wheels sparkle like new!

                My Tesla got vandalized with paint graffiti and permanent marker. I tried this product and to my amazement, it removed both paint graffiti and permanent marker. It sure made my day and saved a new paint job. I highly recommend this product.

                Love this graffiti remover
                Well my Jeep was tagged with graffiti. Mainly the rear window. Looked on YouTube on how to remove spray paint on a vehicle and came across this remover. Went to Home Depot right away and tried it. Only took me 10 mins to remove it. I was very happy with the outcome. I definitely recommend this spray.

                Quite possibly the most destructive thing known to lexan
                Used this product, sparingly, on a lexan rc body, to remove enamel paint. By sparingly, I mean that I used maybe 3oz out of the 22oz bottle. Yes, I followed the instructions and tested it on spot prior to further use. The results were very promising. The paint came right off, the lexan was clear. No negative side effects. However, after applying more to the rest of the body, the results were disastrous. It quite literally ate through the car body. The lexan became brittle, cloudy, and several holes formed through out. It is quite completely destroyed. Be careful, as the product clearly states that the company is not responsible for USE or misuse. This actually means if you use it properly, and it causes damage, they are NOT responsible. This should be quite telling on it's own.

                AMAZING results....pictures included
                I work for a storage facility and rented out our moving truck, which was returned with graffiti on all four sides of the truck. After going to three stores, I finally purchased a bottle. I wasn't sure it would work but was willing to try so I knew I at least attempted to remove it before having the company repaint. I sprayed the product on and waited a two minutes. I then scrubbed the graffiti with a non-scratching sponge. Like magic, the graffiti began to wipe off. I still can't believe it!! The spray paint was dark red and silver! After scrubbing with the sponge, which actually didn't require "scrubbing"...(I just didn't want to waste a billion paper towels), I simply reapplied the product and wiped off the residue with a paper towel. I took before and after pictures.

                Amazing!
                Someone sprayed a line across the whole passenger side of my car. I bought this and same rags at Home Depot and it literally wiped right off. Highly recommended. I thought I would have to get my car detailed and pay big money, but I'm glad I went this route.

                  Long story short, our young son decided to impress us with his spelling and writing skills which is great! What wasn't so great was he did it with spray paint; and on the side of our house! This product (along with a scrub brush) did a great job on the vinyl siding but the foundation brick is another story. Bottom line: Great on vinyl siding, not so great on brick

                  We noticed that you had a slight challenge with removing graffiti from a brick surface. Because brick is porous, you will need to use a different approach to removing the spray paint. We recommend you spray on Lift Off Spray Paint and Graffiti Remover. Let it set for 3 to 5 minutes, then agitate the surface with a stiff bristle or wire brush. Using a high pressure water system will then knock off any remaining spray paint from the brick surface. You can also call our customer service department (800-227-5538) for additional assistance. liftoffinc

                  Please note that I am reviewing solely based on my particular experience. I painted a pair of red ABS plastic motorcycle saddlebags with Rustoleum peelable paint. I put about 4 coats of the paint plus 3 coats of clearcoat. The bags sit under the hot sun here in Florida for over 2 weeks. The results were not what I expected. Although the finish was acceptable, the silver bags on a silver motorcycle was bad. It looked like a mirror in 2 wheels. After looking around for something that would not damage the plastic, I decided to use Motsenbocker's remover. I tried a small area and left it sit for a while. Not much was happening apparently; a slight blistering and nothing else. But, when I slid my thumb on the area, the paint started to come out. It did a very good job of removing the paint without damaging the plastic under it. The product will loosen the paint but it will not peel it off by itself. It just loses the grip on the paint. It takes some rubbing with a cloth or your finger to peel it off. Some areas will need a second application for hard to remove places, but it will do the job. In conclusion, I will use it again if and when needed: it does the job and an attractive price.

                  We would value the opportunity to learn more about your spray paint removal project and be able to offer some techniques that may prove more successful. If you are working on porous surfaces, such as concrete and brick, we recommend applying Lift Off Spray Paint and Graffiti Remover, letting it set for one to three minutes, then using a high pressure water system at 1,200 psi to blast off the graffiti.
