WTF is this shit? n how do i get it out...tha shop closed so i cant take it back yet... im takin it there at 9am when they open but for now im pissed n wonderin what tha fuck this shit could be...any ideas?

Overspray can get everywhere trust me. Very little of the clear that they put in the gun actually ends up on the car

if it is overspray is this shit fixable or are they gon have to paint tha whole damn car?

That does look like the glue from the tape came off, id just wait and let the bodyshop fix it. That way they cant blame you for fucking something up while trying to fix it. You can use so type of glue remover though, paint thinner too. Just try a spot where you wont notice it to make sure the thinner/glue remover doesnt damage your paint

take it back. tell them they fucked it up and have them wetsand and buff the whole car for you. your paint will be nice and new again. anyone who details cars with those highspeed buffers will be able to do it.

They must have used some old masking tape. Or they baked your car or sat it in the sun with regular masking tape on it, instead of using the special tape used when baking.
