caravan cleaning

i would like to know what is the best way off cleaning fence paint overspray off my caravan including windows and clear roof vents ? DUE TO MY BRAINLESS FEMALE NEIGHBOUR SPRAYING ONE FENCE PANEL
 
Hi Craig is the paint she's used water based if it is you could try cif cream cleaner, I use it on my van if i get the black lines under the windows, and it does'nt scratch the paint. Good luck mate
 
If the overspray is water based fence paint try using very hot water before anything else, the hot water should break down the fence paint and then use the rough side of one of those small rectangular washing up sponges with more hot water to remove stubborn paint particles.
 
If the overspray is not waterbased (most fence paints are these days) try using a microfibre cloth soaked in white spirit before the spray hardens completely but it's best to avoid using white spirit on acrylic caravan windows. Windowize is the safest bet if the overspray can't be easily soaked off by using hot water on the windows and rooflight.
 
try hot water and wasing powder on your windows use brasso if this fails ak her for her insurance details of the property and go down that route !

we all have liability on buildings and contents insurance

Be very careful if you are going to remove the overspray this way. If you use the green rough side of the washing up sponges you will end up with a very scratched caravan. My son when he was about 10, decided my car needed washing, he used one of those sponges and used the green side to remove stubbon bird dropings. It left my car in a right old state with round scratch marks all over the bonnet and roof.

Imho, I would not go anywhere near my caravan with one of those sponges.
