Customer Reviews for Motsenbockers 22 oz. Lift Off #4 Spray Paint Graffiti Remover

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

The stuff works great, took overspray off my vehicle in seconds, just be sure to wash car after using Just to be safe.

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.

Did not clean that well.

Like spraying water on spray paint. No effect whatsoever.

I had some spray paint to remove from back wall of a trailer. I assumed it would be a long chore, but was quite happy when the graffiti remover and a green scrubbing pad removed it from the venal in only a few minutes! VERY HAPPY!!

I believe I could have gotten better results if I had used bleach. It did not do what it was supposed to do. After several attempts, I just gave up. Spend your money on a better product.

Didn't work. Just smeared the graffiti

Worked perfectly removing all oil-based paint from the laminate floor without damaging the floor. Spray, let stand, wipe off, minimal elbow grease required.

Works great

It made no difference with white spray paint on red bricks. Save your money, don't buy this product.

Rarely write reviews but this was a lifesaver. Accidentally got a lot of overspray onto my black truck paint from an oil-based stain I used for my fence (oops). Soap and water did nothing. Mineral spirits had a little luck but was very difficult. Found a recommendation for this stuff on a forum and tried it and with a little elbow grease it all came right off. Definitely would recommend!

I was dealing with heavy graffiti and used almost a full bottle, but it was apparent that the product was not completely removing the spray paint. I have to paint over the mess.

Lifted nothing off pvc fence. Followed all instructions to no avail. Not the product for the job

It did not remove the paint on the brick on my house.

This stuff is great. I spray painted the scratches all over my car and it looked like a hot mess . So I used clear coat on it and it made it look worse. Two days later I used the graffiti remover and it got it all off. Spray small areas at a time. Will definitely buy again.

Does it job very well. I removed oil based super deck paint from my lawn mover which got sprayed accidentally by contractor. it really works.

Trying to get graffiti off a rock wall, only a mediocre job, takes a LOT of scrubbing and still leaves significant amount of paint.

We used this product to remove years old stain from our vinyl siding that had accumulated from rain washing paint down from our old plastic shutters. This product definitely softens and removes the stain; a little brushing and rinsing and it all came off. The only problem is that this will dry a little too fast before getting all the stain off, so had to reapply quite often to keep it wet and soluble.

Used this to remove spray paint from used Dewalt tools I purchased. Nothing else would remove the paint without damaging the plastic and rubber.

could not believe how easy it took off the graffiti

I tried several types of cleaning agents to remove some graffiti off frp board in a restroom. Some of them helped, but by no means did the job. This product really surprised me how quickly and well it did the job. I would recommend this product, just don't breath the fumes.

Works great
