Buy a buffer. You will love it when waxing too.

Oven cleaner. When my car got spray painted, I had three different body guys tell me to use oven cleaner. Worked great, didn't damage the paint, and after a wax the car looked as good as new. I used Easy-Off, let sit for three minutes, and washed off with soap and water. Re-applied in problem areas, runs, drips and creases.

DO NOT USE OVEN CLEANER!!!! You are lucky it did not damage the paint! I have used it as a paint remover and it works well!!!

DEAR GAWD DO NOT USE NAIL POLISH REMOVER

Some good polish and a buffer is your best bet. Follow that with a claybar treatment, and you should be set for wax. After wax she should look good as new.

For future reference- a good, regular wax job will make dealing with this kinda thing much easier.
