WD40 and a magic eraser block pad can get paint off from other cars and buildings and also marks. Just don't rub too deeply or else you might rub the car paint off.

I think I might be scared of doing more damage to my car using that combination of its strong enough to strip paint.

Car touchup pen any use to you as a temporary option?

But if it’s down to bare metal you might want to click to the entire paint section to get yourself a primer too

Edit: There are also more paint colours available in the spray cans. Some are $5 on clearance

I guess it’s too late. I put the nail polish on. At least for now it’s protect it a little.

I’m just stressed i guess and couldn’t afford much more than what I already had.

The colour is call purple blue I think it’s and a metallic paint. Not sure how easy that would have been to find.

Guess it couldn’t have been worse than me using an off colour nail polish like I just did.

Anyway I’m going to see if I can clean this off my hands and I guess sink into how much my life sucks and wishing i took it easy this morning pulling out of my car port.
