Carpet Adhesive on Car Paint

Does anyone have any ideas how to remove carpet adhesive from the paint work of Car without ruining the colour and paint on the car? I was driving into a mall the other day when I ran over a can which turned out to be a aerosol can of carpet adhesive! It sprayed over the side of my car and now I'm wondering how to remove it! I immediately took it to the carwash which took some off, but a lot is still there. I would be very grateful, as a new paint job would be a headache.

Thanks,
LIAM from Dublin, Ireland

go to a bodyshop and ask for wax and grease remover.
or, dupont product 3919, or 4105
never put wd40 on your car NEVER!!

or, use an eraser wheel.

Try some WD40. Sounds crazy, but you'd be amazed at what that stuff can do.

try goo be gone you can get it in hardware store and its a bit pricey 8-10 dollars for a bottle but it wont take off paint but it will take off adhesive.
