My pride and joy...vandalized. *sigh*
Yup. My luck streak continues...just when I thought I might have kicked it, it kicks me where it counts.
Long story short, I was doing my brother a favor by watching his awesome son (1.5 years old) while he and his wife grabbed dinner and a movie. I parked my car in front of their house, where I usually do.
Mind you, this is a very nice neighborhood, no crime, no wandering trouble makers, etc.
Well, fast forward 4 hours...time to go home. I walk out to my car, and I was about to open my door and I notice white stuff all over the ground. At first glance I thought it was light bulb fragments, and then I looked closer...and smelled it. Yup, you guessed it...EGGS.
So I immediately look at my car and low and behold there are at least 3 eggs strewn down the side of my show car finish. I immediately ran and got a hose, and the softest towels my brother had...but the damage was done.
In one spot it almost looks like a rock was thrown as there is missing paint in a scatter-type pattern (like a shotgun spread) all the way to the metal. It's bad.
Then there were TONS of runs ALL the way along and down my entire Roush side skirts. It also got on my clear coated OZ Racing wheel ($175 a pop for a 17...).
I got home around midnight, did a Last Touch wipe down, followed by Meguiar's solvent for now. I eventually got the gunk off...but my car smells like nasty eggs, and I have missing paint and clear galore.
COOOOOL.

I am sure it will be OK when you are finished with it. It is just ridiculous that you have to do it for this reason. Let me know if you need anything.
