Question HELP! what's the best (and EASIEST) way to remove caution paint + dirt from car..!!!

it hasn't rained in a month here but they decided to stripe a road yesterday while the streets were wet after a rain

I have a nice combination of the yellow stripe paint+dirt+water (dried now of course) on the side and back of my car...including tail lights and on the rear valence (black plastic).

I washed the car this morning...its pretty light stuff since it was mixed with water and dirt...not heavy thick paint. Clay bar should work on the painted areas...but this crap is on/in the chrome letters as well. I'm thinking of kerosene or gasoline especially for the rear valence.

thoughts?
