Try lacquer thinner assuming the over spray is paint. If it's 2 part polyurethane it will be pretty hard to remove. If the lacquer thinner won't touch it, xylene may work.

Use an appropriate thinner with one of those scotch-brite pads or similar.

I've used a beadblaster to take overspray off rubber trim parts. It works great, the beads bounce off the rubber and it looks like new. Of course, you have to use common sense and mask anything you don't want to blast. Take the wheels off the car. Duct tape works well as masking tape for beadblasting.
