Write over it with a temporary marker, and it'll wipe straight off

Well done, clever boy.

His dad probably posts on here and goes on about mondeos all the time and neglects him, thus generating his hatred of the cars and desire to cover them with crudely drawn genitals

Alcohol will do it fine, methylated or ISO. White spirit is also a good choice.

Yup Lynx is full of alcohol so will aslo work fine, removes stickers from cd cases as well

, but will make you smell like a chav.

T-cut is a bit ott for permy marker tbh, you'll be taking topcoat off along with it. Also make sure its the clear coat safe stuff if you have a metallic paint.

"Do you know what it says on the side of my car?"

"******?"

"You're in the right ball park"

what shall i use for the windows till t-cut still be ok?

Use alcohol as has been suggested mate. Why use a cutting compound if you don't have to?. Alcohol will be fine on glass as well.

But check its OK on an inconspicuous part first just to be on the safe side.
