Removing over spray
Just got my car back from the body shop after having my wide body fenders painted and noticed some paint overspray on my powder coated wheel. How can I safely remove without damaging the finish?

Take it back to them and let them know they they need to clean it off. I own a paint shop and I know that I would do it IF I got overspray on your wheels.
AS for what it would take to get it off..I would start with the mildest polish I have and go from there until I found the one that removed it.
It is hard to exactly tell you or advise you on what to use due to I have no way in knowing what they shot and IF the reducers/thinners in it actually have enough ability to actually eat into the powercoating when the overspray laid on the wheel.
