Window Chalk on Paint!

Ok so long story short my neighbor girl and her 2 friends chalked my whole car and now after a car wash and hand scrubbing the stuff barely comes off. Any easy way to get the stuff off the car??
EDIT: Oh yeah and this was 1 day after i spent about 4 hours washing/claybar/waxing it, yipppee??

Make them wash it in bikinis until it is clean then PIITB...

Seriously though, have you tried bug and tar remover that is clear coat safe? What exactly did they use to make the marks on your car? Keep it out of the sun until you get this resolved!
 
they used the car chalk marker things you can buy at walmart, made for windows, not paint. Any prodcut names (id assume probably mothers or meguiars or something). And yeah....it got to sit in the sun for 8 hours yesterday in 95 degree weather so thats already crap :/
Oh well, i need a new paintjob anyways huh? and a free one is even better

Also she WILL be washing/waxing it at some point, in a bikini, with me watching........definitly

EDIT: Yeah forgot this is the tech forum, this is usually the only one i read. Go ahead and move this to shine or 4.6 talk or wherever you want, sorry!

sun + black paint + bs like that = yer skrewed...

Actually i scrubbed the hell out of one part for about 10 minutes (the x on the hood) and it got it down to a stain like thing on the paint. Took wax to that and it was just like new....sorta. But i do not want to spend 5 hours scrubbing it just to get frickin window chalk off.
 
I would recommend hot soapy water, maybe break out a hair drier and heat up the chalk and it will wipe off with soapy water.

Make sure they see you cleaning it and act all depressed, you'll be sure to make them feel bad and get some extra TLC :nice:
 
Alright ill take the repsonses here 1 at a time

are they hot?
yes they are good looking, unfortunatly i dont have pictures of any of them, the only one i have is of my neighbor who is 1 of them and its a grainy picture i took when i was younger (lastyear) and is a rather stalkerish picture. Long story behind it too, i named it nice.jpg and my dad found it, so when we came home and she was outside he was like "nice".....it sucked.....but yeah thats the only picture of her that i have and you cant really see her.

what kind of wheels are those?
no clue, they are American Racing and that is all i know. They were on the car when i bought it, i have done nothing to the car besides CAI right now.

lower it
i work at mcdonalds, im not exactly made of money. Right now im focusing on making it fast and fixing minor problems here and there. It has a salvage title because it was t-boned sorta before i bought it. So im fixing certain problems that arise first. One step at a time it will start to look better hopefully.

why'd they do that?
because i was working a 7-close and i had talked to her earlier and she knew we were WAY behind and wouldnt get out til about 2AM so they chalked it while we were closing, and i had a nice surprise when i got out.

Also, her mom came over too and was talking to us and she said that theyd be paying for a new paintjob if it needed it. Good thing im a laid back sorta person and didnt really care that much, because the way things were looking at first, it looked like a paintjob would be the only way to fix the damage. But i went to autozone and picked up some clear coat safe tar/bug remover and that takes it off nicely. Remover, wash, claybar, and wax should put it back to looking "decent" again. I also talked to my neighbor tonight who is out of state in SD for soccer right now and we planned on her comming over when she gets back and doing all the above mentioned stuff, so ill sit back and watch and enjoy :D and maybe take a few pictures for you guys.
