I got an estimate for 300 bucks to repaint the door on my brand new Honda Accord. The eggs made little white swirls all over my door. I tried a little bug/tar remover and it helped a bit, but in general its going to need new paint on the door. The clearcoat on the driver's side door is ruined.
I raced to the carwash at about noon today, and it was too late. Early this morning, around 3 am I'm figuring.my vehicle got egged. Use Bug Off/ Tar Off - that helps, Or household ammonia (tsp with a cup of water) but either get touch up paint from the dealer or get it repainted. There is nothing you can really do about egg once its dried on your car's paint. My 1997 Pontiac was egged and the paint peeled right up. Yes, egg will damage the paint on your car. If you dry it and the paint, supposedly, that will get the protein out. I'm told that the protein in eggs mix with something in the paint and that is what damages it. Unfortunately, it left a lot of marks that would not come off after washing it several times. When I noticed it happened, I immediately got a sponge and began washing it, but it was three in the morning so I decided to wait until the next day to wash it. !! My stupid EX-girlfriend thought it would be funny to throw eggs at my car. If anyone could help or give advice and information it would be much appreciated. My cousins car was egged and she was told her paint would need to be stripped entirely and repainted at a cost of $AUS 5500. I would like some more information on the damage eggs do to cars, especially if on a blue metallic paint.

YES it damages paint and YES it costs a lot to fix - basically you have to repaint everywhere that got egged, which is at least a few hundred dollars. When we try to remove that then it leaves white spots. Yes sir, egg can damage car's clear coat because it sticks on that. Moral - avoid students during their post-exam festivities or don't drive cars near universities.Ī.
The eggs were not immediately washed off and left lots of hazy white spots all over the car that couldn't be washed off later. Ask my wife, she had two eggs thrown at her car by some students. An egg can cause staining of a car's clear coat. Was it a Mercedes or a Corvette? James WattsĪ. Having to mow a lot of lawns in the heat of the day to pay it off will be a fine lesson for him to learn about respect for other peoples property. The exact clear coat and under paint will make quite a difference. I think that it is the enzymes in it that do the most damage, but the sulfur content does not help either. Overnight is enough to damage some paints. If your son is a young child, sorry that it's an expensive way for him to learn that eggs are more damaging than he thought.Ī. Believe it, Derek! If you're still dubious, break an egg on your own car, let it sit for 48 hours, and tell us what you believe then :-)Īn egg will absolutely damage a car's paint (or anything else's paint).
