Depends what kinda paint the white paint is.... If its house paint try using turps first. If its Car paint you will have to use thinners. It will leave the paint a little dull but a polish will bring it back to life...

Try it on a unseen surface first because if the spoiler is painted in acrylic thinners will lift that too.

If it is painted in acrylic well then it will needs re painting.
