I've go overspray on various parts of the car like wires and the like.
How's the best way to remove it?

I tried using acetone on my wiring harness and it started taking some of the colored stripes off so be careful. There's a product called "Goof Off" which might not be as strong as acetone. What ever you try, test it out on a hidden part of your wiring harness first.

Try a clay bar. You can find it with the other car-cleaning products. It doesn't work on everything, but it can work on overspray on some parts.

It pulled the overspray (& bad touch-ups) off the Bus.

As a last resort you can try some low temp enamel reducer (like duPont 3812), or some laquer thinner. Test an inconspicuous spot first though. Laquer thinner does well on rubber parts, and sort of brings back some life to dry rotted rubber.

I like lacquer thinner and fine steel wool. It can dissolve plastic/vinyl if you get too aggressive. Good on rubber.

I know brake fluid takes it off the side of the car.
Don't know what it would do to PVC but it doesn't hurt the rubber brake lines!
