This happened on my brand new motorcycle 2 years ago, I got home with 19
miles on the odometer and my motor, exhaust and other parts of the bike
splattered with this stuff. By then though it was well baked on due to the
heat and it would not come off, can you imagine how pissed I was ?
I retraced my route and found out where I had gone over the white lines
and found no one there working on the lines. I went to CalTrans and
started complaining loudly, turns out I got a guy in trouble because he had
removed the cones before the paint was dry because it was lunchtime and he
wanted to move on to the next road.
Anyway, they gave me a small bottle of solvent to remove it and it did
from all but the exhaust pipes where it was really baked on. They
suggested being careful on paint but I didn't have any on painted
surfaces. I don't know what this solvent was, it was in a small clear
plastic bottle with no writting on it but it worked, it smelled to me like
M.E.K. but they said it was ok on paint and I would never put M.E.K. on
paint. Maybe you should contact the state road dept. where you are.

stuff
got in the thread this summer)
