Default paint in the road! wtf?

so i drove over some red paint today, that someone dropped on the road. pressure washed most of the crap off the left side but now the left front and rear tires still have the red paint on some of the tread.

need some advice as to what to use to get the paint off or would it be best to let the dirt from offroading, eventually eat the paint away?

Go ahead and clay bar the truck, that should take most if not all the paint off.

Einszettes Acrysol will work perfect for that, and very safe on the cars paint. I would also clay the heck out of it too. I ran thru some fresh white paint about 2 years ago. I was up till 1 am cleaning and claying. Get it off as soon as you can.
