Well,
I got egged Monday night and I'm pretty upset.
This was a fastball! The impact was so hard that it created
a crater effect with a hundred little holes in it's circumference.
Kind of like a rasberry you would get when hit by a baseball
in your thigh.
I was able to buff out [aggresively] much of the rasberry effect
but with doing so I lost a little paint. Looks somewhat
like burning an edge with a PC. It's not big but it's about
a quarter inch wide and one inch long. I'm hoping to treat it
like a paint chip repair.
My question for the paint chip pros. When I apply the touch up, as it dries it has a kind of flat paint look. Does this look go away when you wet sand[2000 grit] and polish?
Also, must you wait the full week for the touch up to dry
before you do finishing steps like many recommend?
BTW- If you get egged make sure you wash the egg off ASAP.
I did not know it but dried egg acts like paint remover.
I since heard of people having to repaint cars due to baked on egg.
Thanks,
RD
