If it's acrylic, maybe acetone (available at beauty supply store, I've seen it at Walmart before); basically fingernail polish remover without the moisturizers and other stuff.

Just be careful not to let it drip down onto any plastic, it can eat into some kinds enough to mess up the surface.

And you want thick rubber or latex gloves (not disposable ones) to protect your hands from the acetone, and plenty of fresh air so you don't breathe too much of it. Nitrile gloves, good for many things, are NOT resistant to acetone.

You also want the fresh air because acetone vapor is flammable.

As mentioned elsewhere, you may want alcohol to follow the acetone, so there's no residue in case you're going to wrap or coat afterward.

If I were going to doodle on stainless steel, I think I'd try whiteboard markers, where are quite temporary and meant to come off reasonably easily. But my doodles don't look like anything at all, so I wouldn't.
I used it all and at the end Windex melted it off! Wild!

I did these comps four years ago but decided to doodle on it instead

Both look great! do you have an artist page I can follow? X or insta

edit:
Followed!

imo the truck is a perfect canvas and the blend between art and used-truck aesthetics (scuffs, mud) will be incredible. for instance, the Baja prototypes looked absolutely sick.

Last Friday I took delivery of the beast and doodled all over it (using posca acrylic markers) in the Tesla Parking lot. Surprisingly the Tesla staff was real cool about it and even helped me clean some of it when I needed help!

Pretty amazing experience and I’m loving the truck!!
