Someone threw an egg at the car at night time. by morning the egg was frozen. Barely washed it off. The door is chiped scratched etc... The car is only a month and half old.
Any suggestions as far as what can i do the paint to hide the chip and the scrtaches besides buffing it out?
Very Very upset for two days now....

People that would do such a thing should be publically tortured, like that jerkwad who got caned in Singapore.

that's horrible...sorry to hear about the misfortune. Unfortunately once the damage is done, not a lot you can do. You might try to clay bar it once washed. Whatever damage is done to the clearcoat is done. You can try buffing it out, and if beyond that your only other remedy might be to get a body shop to wet sand it. If it is actually chipped to where you see primer or metal, all you can do is touch up paint or re-spray it...

Sorry to hear that. I would wash the car first.

1. generous amount of car wash liquid in that area first.
2. clay the area with car wash liquid as lubricant.
3. use 1/Z Einszett Polishes (green / paint polish). It will remove light scratch.
4. wax the whole car, if the stain / scratch is gone.

You can always take your car to a detail shop and get a exterior only detail for about $80-$100 (since your car is almost new and clean). I wouldn't take the car to a body shop unless the damage is really serious. It doesn't sound like it from your description.

You could try the turtle wax with chipstick to fill in the chip. THen use the polish to blend it in.

Cold water removes egg more easily than warm water. Hurry before it dries up.
