paint problem need help please

Don't know if this is a good idea or not but I worked at Ziebart rust proofing cars for a while. We used to use either kerosene or diesel fuel to wash the over spray off of the paint, only thing it did, supposedly, was strip off the wax......I can say these also works wonders at taking chain lube off of motorcycles, and that stuff was beyond sticky....think it was made with synthetic sperm whale oil or something of that nature....
