Sorry this happened to your car. It would have been nice if you could have caught the idiot in the act. Hope the body shop can make it look like new again.
Polishing compound has worked for me before, although I'm not sure if I'd use it on my vette. Also depends on the velocity of the eggs as I have seen them chip paint.
Got my Bonneville egged. Used clay bar and it all came out. Lucky it was on the rear quarter and not on top so it did not get much chance to bake in. Then Zaino
I was visiting my girlfriend today and when i left to go home i found someone had thrown an egg at my car, it landed where the rear glass meets the the roof and got all over the roof and the down on the hood. I rushed home witch is about 2 miles away and washed it off but it was to late it has etched the clear coat letting you see everywhere the egg had time to bake on the car in the hot texas sun. Makes me want to catch the SOB that did this but at the same time i dont cause i really dont want kill anyone right now! oh well its going to the bodyshop tomorrow and the said they will try and buff it but most likely it will need to be recleared.
i know your pain. Mine was hit 2 years ago on the hood just to the left of the headlight door. Body shop said that the shell chipped the clear ( looks like a comet running up my hood) and they may be able to wet sand and polish ( 100.00 ) but if they go through more clear it would mean refinishing the whole hood (650.00)
