Newspaper Ink on Paint

We regularly do a newspaper building and we are having problems with ink handprints on a painted concrete wall. Tried diluted ZEP with no luck and any stronger would bubble the paint. Any suggestions. Thanks.
 
Thanks Steven, you say D-Limolene...is this the same as Limonene that I see in ESpec's catalog which is a citrus product?
 
Try a graffitti remover from a paint store tell them the problem maybe they can help you.

I am not sure about the limonene that they sell, I have never used it. The product I was talking is 95% pure citrus acid. I have checked the MSDS of limonene compared to the D-Limonene that I was referring to and they are not the same type product. The only thing they have in common is citrus acid. The most important thing is finding products that meet your needs.

If you do these regularly I would prevent these prints from being a problem taken off... Some kind of guard like a garffitti barrier is in order...
