Vandalism of property is a costly endeavor not only for the recipient in damage repairs but also for the one being so destructive when they land in jail. Throwing eggs at cars may seem like a harmless prank. In fact, though it is not harmless as it leaves stains on some car paint finishes. If there is a great deal of staining it could mean having to the have, the car repainted. Now that harmless prank has turned into hundreds of dollars worth of damage.
There are some individuals that have said that Vaseline Intensive Care Lotion rubbed into the egg stain and left for five minutes then removed works well. I haven’t seen this in action so it’s hard to say how valid it is.
There are two solutions you may want to try before taking it to the auto repair shop.
Method One:
Step One
Most often what happens is if the egg happens to hit the car the wrong way if will chip the paint. So first, you need to assess the damage very carefully. If the paint is not chipped you can try this method, otherwise you need to go to method 2.
Step Two
Purchase some very high grit sandpaper and soak a strip of it in water overnight. The paper must be saturated with water.
Step Three
Sand very lightly the stained area with the sandpaper you had soaking in water overnight. Do not apply too much pressure and make sure you keep the sandpaper wet.
Step Four
Rinse the area well and dry it. You now need to use a rotary polisher. This should remove any marks that the sanding may have made. The technique you have utilized here is a smooth service that has had a clear coat melted into it.
Step Five
Now you are going to want to eliminate the swirl marks and you do this by applying a pure polish and buffing it in.
If the egg stain mark is not gone then you will have to resort to step two.
Method Two:
Fold an extra strength paper towel into a square and place it over the egg stain. Then spray the paper towel with brake cleaner being sure to keep it confined to the area of the stain. The brake fluid may removed some of the car paint so be absolutely sure not to get it anywhere except on the stain itself.
If the car is badly chipped you will need to sand it down, and then touch it up with some car paint.
Removing permanent stains from cars can be very difficult. In order not to end up having to do a full paint job you would be much further ahead to take it into a paint repair shop and have it professionally done. All too often do it yourselfers have ended up costing themselves a great deal of money thinking they could repair a problem themselves.
Ideally if there is vandalism in your area you would be wise to keep your vehicle in a shelter location if possible.
