overspray on front wheels

Last night I sanded and painted my trunk, and I covered the whole car and the wheels included, but the front wheels somehow still got a little overspray on them.  They are coys C-5 and they look to be brushed aluminuim.  My question is what can I do to remove that overspray?  Is my only option a clay bar and would that put little scratches in the wheels.  I just don't know what to do here.  

Its possible to use fine grit sandpaper(2000 grit). I dont know if paint remover would have a chemical reaction with the wheels so I might stay away from it. This may only happen with chrome wheels but better save than sorry. I dont see how clay bars would scratch up your wheels.  

There is most likely a clear coat on those wheels, so if you use a little paint thinner, and the sooner the better, just enough to get the over spray, you can buff out and wax the wheels. Not sure this is the right way, but I did it once for exactly this reason..  

Did you have any chemical reactions with the wheel Hill?  

I sure didn't seem to, but I sold that car within 6 mo. of painting it...  I seem to recall dulling the finish on some wheels years ago, so my advice on this is probably bad. sorry

I've not ever been big on outward appearance of my cars, but rather meticulous in the mechanicals..  seems each time I paint a car, (pressure from family, they don't appreciate ugly) someone ends up buying it.. Lost my beloved El Camino that way.  

Use rubbing compound not paint thinner.  
Horsepower sells Engines and torque wins races.

Of course rubbing compound.. I'm getting old now, and as soon as I saw the phrase "rubbing compound" that old green can by Dupont came to mind...
