Default Paint on my paint... errr...

OK, so the title speaks for itself. I come here to get some suggestions on this. OK, last year, I got married, and well lets just say the stupid people put that window paint crap on my car. Well I didn't have time to get it off and it's dried on my paint. Is there any way to get it off? Will I be able to get it off my self?

A local autoparts place. A kit will run about $20.

i'd have to say, this is awesome stuff! Bought some today and completely removed all the little white specs. It takes alot of time to do it, I'm not completely done yet, but I'm working on it. I guess I should of taken some before and after pick. ::Hits Head::

I would first try using some WD40 and a soft towel. Then follow up with Clay Bar and some NXT wax. Good luck and let us know how it goes Bro!
PS
It's amazing that people think it's OK to vandalize someones car. If worse come to worse have the people responsible pay to have it removed and detailed professionally.

naw - i got pretty much of it off. With it being such small specs, it might take a while to catch every one, but man it was everywhere. I don't know how, cause all they did was the back window, but thankfully to you guys, I found the stuff to remove it!
