Paint in most paint balls is water based, so it'll wash out of clothes,
hair, skin, etc... Rather than paint removal, I'd be more worried about what
the impact did to the finish of your Dakota! Those damn paint balls HURT
when they hit! I caught one on the side of my neck once and it was swollen
and nasty purple-greenish for almost 2 weeks--lotsa force behind those paint
balls! Check to make sure the paint didn't crack @ point of impact and that
there isn't a dent...

I agree! SPRING BREAK FOR DAKS!!! START YOUR ENGINES!!!

I was lucky as it happened shortly before I got there and it was very wet
with no sign of drying at all. I'm very grateful that whatever kind of
paint is in those paint balls isn't that bad to clean up. Can you imagine
an enamel based paint?
