Sounds crazy but heres my question, Guy who owned the truck before me painted houses and stuff like that and store everything in the bed....well there are a few spots of yellow and white (im assuming) house paint and im not sure how to get em off without sanding and priming and repainting the whole bed. Any Ideas?

thats interesting, i bought my truck of a painter also with the same deal. I used G7 Scratch remover and it took paint of after few sec's of rubbing. try that.

you could try auto clay, we use that at the shop to take overspray off of paint.. but from your story that paint is bigger then overspray and isn't recent.. try that G7 stuff

You could also easily remove that paint with some lacquer thinner,just pour a little on a towel and just wipe it off.
