Paint overspray

Hi

Noticed my ep3 has some over spary on the front wings and bumper. It seems to be clear coat overspray and the areas feel a bit rough and dull.

Would using clay bar and then polish, wax get rid of the overspray or would it need wet sanding.
 
Polish wont as it has no abrasives. Go with a clay first. If no luck then a compound. Orange pad with M105 would be where I'd start. If it's not shifting and you're brave/experienced enough, start wet sanding at 3000 grit. If still nothing move down the grades until it starts lifting. As soon as it starts lifting, make as few passes as needed and move back up to 3000 grit. Then M105 on orange pad. M205 on a white pad. Seal. Wax. Presto.
