gasoline on paint Sign In

I was pumping gas at my local gas station and it overflowed on to my paint. I immediatley soaked up the excess gas in my gas tank entry. Then I diluted the gasoline that had gotten on my paint with water. Drove home which took five minutes and washed the inside and outside with carwash soap and water. Did I do the right thing? Will my paint be damaged? For the short time the paint was on my car? I hope someone can answer my question! Thank you Sincerely!!!

Soap and water quickly is about as much as you can do. It doesn't hurt most original paint jobs permanantly but is likely to remove any wax job you had in that area.

It should be done whatever it's going to do now so I'd just repolish that area again and it should be fine,
