Hi Guys,
This afternoon as I was driving out of the parking lot at work, I noticed our IT guys car (black Hyundai Atos) had some strange stuff / splashes on it. As he was also getting into his car, I stopped and chatted to him about it. Some twat splashed silver paint on his car from the front section of the roof, windscreen, bonnet, right hand side fender, front bumper and headlights. He doesn't know how it happened but told me he found the car that way (away from work) and suspects a bit of vandalism. To me it looks like the car was "paint bombed" from a height.
I told him about my detailing hobby and offered to help him try and get the car sorted.Using my finger nail, I rubbed it against a spot on the headlight and it came off without much fuss. I was thinking of claying the car to try and take the paint splashes off. Would this work? What other recommendations do you guys have? Sorry, I forgot to take pics but will do so tomorrow.
