My car was parked in town and when I got home i noticed there is about 10,000 speckles of paint, seems to be shifting with very hot water and fairy liquid but its gonna take hours and hours.

anyone got any tips for a quicker removal?

Thanks in advance

I've heard that claying works but I've never had to do it myself.

This happened my wife's car after some plike painted flag poles was she parked beside on a windy day.

A clay mitt got all of it off - https://www.halfords.ie/motoring/car-cleaning/wheel-tyre-cleaning/farecla-g3-body-prep-clay-mitt.

Clean the car thoroughly before using the mitt and use with plenty of lubrication, warm soapy water works well.

This happened me at a McDonalds drive thru, they'd painted the fascias above and green paint dripped over every car that drove under. As above, warm water softens the paint well.

If it's water based paint then claying and/or warm water will do the job. The sooner you attack it the easier it will be to get off.
