Absolutely Fuming

[LWCARAB]

Went down to my car to set off for work to find that it had been egged, tyres let down and black lines on the back bumper.
Not having time this morning, all I could do was take it to the jet wash, I've blasted off as much as I can see but god knows what the damage is.

 

[Lewis_FR]

What a bunch of C*nts. Sorry to hear that man, hope the damage is minimal!

 

[LWCARAB]

Cheers mate, I could kill em I swear, apparently the only way to get egg of is a mix of vinegar and water 30mins after it happened so I'm screwed.

 

[DanGB]

thats bad man. Surely its not hard to get egg off?

Any other cars had the same in your area?

 

[LWCARAB]

I've been reading about it and it seem if left for more than an hour it eats away at the paint. I washed it as soon as I could and I've been scrubbing away at it for the last 20mins in my work car park. I think it's all gone and can't see any paint fading, theres a small paint chip but it's hardly noticeable. The black lines seem to be tyre marks from bikes, I also seem to have just about got rid of them.

And no it was just my car that had got it. I guess because it's the brand new 57 plate and all the other cars are old 205s.

[LWCARAB]

I wish I could, unfortunatly the 5 year olds would probably stab me

Mother F !!!

I've had a scan over Detailing world & cant find anything relating to egging.

What part of london town are you, maybe I can suggest a valeter/deting company who may be of assistance...

I think it's all cleaned off, I hope it has, but eggs do seem to be a paint killer.
I'm in far west London.

I can vouch for refined reflections as Gary come to mine to prep my car before the Paint Shield went onto the front.

 

[alimck]

That sucks big-time.

I knew someone who had paint stripper poured all over their car by some anonymous arsehole.

Why do people feel the need to do this crap?

when i had my civic sum little sh*t tried breakin in with a screw driver, i herd him when he was attempting the passender side so i was out the house chasin him down the road screamin that i was gonna kill the little b*****d but he jumped into a car and dissapeared, unfortuantly i didnt get its reg number so £160 for a new set of locks! if id hav caught him id hav done more that 160 quids worth of damage to his face and vital organs!
AND THEN
a few months later my neighbour woke me sum on sunday morning and both our cars (his is a black Audi A4 1.9tdi) and a few others up the road had, had yellow road paint chucked over our cars, fortunalty it had been damp so the paint didnt properly stick so with sum detergent, a scowrer and loads of elbow grease i got it all off - it really put me off gettin a new car cos i didnt want it happenin again

Mate that is the pits!

I know how you feel, my brand new cupra was dented three times(trolleys and jealousy) in one weekend which was about three weeks ago, and I have not washed it since.

Hopefully getting the dents sorted on saturday morning at a painless dent removal guy in Uxbridge. Fingers crossed.

Where abouts are you in W.London, im in the sprawling metropolis of Greenford right off the the M40.

Good luck mate.

Koh1, LWCARAB, looks like we are all West Londoners. Should try and organise a mini meet one day. Sorry for the thread hijack LWCARAB.

 

[LWCARAB]

Lol no worries Pummy, I'm in the boundries of Southall and Ealing so very close to Greenford.

Cheers for the detailing contacts. Might use them even if I can't see anything.
