So my car got egged...

[ryan34]

So i get a little kid (maybe 7) knocking on my door. "Excuse me sir, is that your car right there" (pointing at my car). I'm thinking, oh great, what happened? So i say yea. He tells me that 2 teenagers just dropped an egg on it. So i ask him what they look like, and i go looking for them real quick. No where to be found. So i immediatly wash the spot. I used dawn because i keep my zaino wash at my friends house (he has a hose spicket where my town house does not). But thanks to quickly finding out, the zaino and the dawn. It came right off. I think if i wouldn't have found out till tomorrow evening when i went to work, that it would've been much harder to get off and might have caused damage. I hear eggs will eat through paint pretty quickly.

I really don't understand why these asses feel the need to mess with other people's stuff. I swear if i would've found them i probably would've hurt them.

Some people have no respect for other people's property. Thank God you found out early enough and had the protection of Zaino on there.

Mine got egged a couple weeks ago also.

In the past I used dawn but recently I read laundry detergent works best, and it did. Apparently it has enzymes that eat dairy based proteins.

be glad they didn't throw the eggs at the car. As the shell impacts, it fragments into lots of tiny teeth that bite into the paint from the force of the impact. You end up with a 1½" circular collection of small chips in the paint, not to mention whatever happens to the paint when the insides of the egg start eating away at the finish.

Morons that do things like this need to be caught in the act and dealt with. Forcing them to lick the rotten egg off the paint would be a start.

Another thing....... it's possible that whomever pointed out the damage are the ones responsible for doing it. Just something to keep in the back of your head.

Yea, I was thinking that. Unfortunatly they were like 7, 8 years old. And they've been playing out side pretty much all day. So if it WAS them, i wouldn't be able to touch them (for obvious reasons) but it really seemed the kid was telling the truth. (because when i asked him what the kids looked like, he gave me details without hesitation) But u never know, it could have been them. I guess I'll only find out if I catch them in the act.

Plus i had to tell some teens the other night to keep quiet right outside my house. I mean i wasn't angry or being a smart ass when i asked them, and the complied. But i have a feeling it could have been them too. But still, I politely asked them to turn down their music because i had to report to base at 5:30 the next day, and it was past midnight. They didn't seem to have a problem with that. But as with most people, they could have just been nice to my face, only to want to do something behind my back. Well lets see if it happens again, I'll be for them

It's good that the eggs weren't thrown, though very unusual. If they were thrown, like Joe said ^

Some people probably think it's just a harmless though messy act, ignorant to the fact that it leaves small chips in a pattern that looks like a spiral galaxy formation. Sorry to see your Bird was the target of vandals. I'm glad you caught it quickly, and may those vandals be

Yeah.... that's a very accurate description!

My "78 Grand LeMans was egged before I got it. Egg chemically alters the paint itself forever staining the car. Consider yourself EXTREMELY LUCKY
