How to get spray paint of my truck?

My 2005 Ford Exploer got vandalized by some bas a$$ kids. My truck is red and the spray paint is white and gold. Its on my right brake light and by my licences plate.How to get spray paint of my truck?
you can use WD-40 or deseil, it will not hurt the paint, if it doesnt work you can try rubbing compoundHow to get spray paint of my truck?
Start by washing the truck. Then use a paint clay bar (available at most auto parts stores, under various brands like Meguiar's) and quick detail lubrication (follow the instructions). If the clay bar is successful in removing the spray paint, follow up with another wash of the area and a coat of wax (wax the whole truck if it's been a while).





If the clay bar doesn't remove the spray, use a fine polish (again, available at most auto parts stores under various brands like Meguiar's). Again, follow the instructions and follow up with a coat of wax if it works.





If the polish doesn't work, you can step up to a glaze and repeat (follow up the glaze with polish and then wax). Basically, you're working your way from fine to coarse, in an attempt to find the least-damaging solution. If you're unable to remove the spray paint by using the polishes and glazes available over the counter, you may have to consult a body shop. Worst case is re-painting the affected area and replacing the brake light assembly and license plate, but I doubt you'd have to go that far. If you do have to take the truck to a professional, consider talking to your insurance to see if they cover vandalism under your comprehensive coverage. The price of service may be less than your deductible, but it may be far more (especially if you have to re-paint) and you might want to go ahead and file a claim.
