I'm guessing this is auto paint. The best rule is to use a reducer of same brand some are not compatible with other brands. e.g.(PPG paint PPG reducer & activator). You will most likely have issues if you mix and match brands. And yes urethane reducer can be used with urethane paint.

How do you remove oil paint over spray on a car?
You might try a weak reducer like a urethane reducer, Lacquer thinner is probably too strong and may damage your paint. It might work if you're quick. Some reducer on a clean white cotton rag, and another clean rag to take it off. Depends on what the paint is that the over-spray came from. Next choice is going to be wet sand with 2000 sand paper, and run a buffer over it! At least your car will look real nice after all that work!
