car got egged

got an 08 civic dxg and was egged pretty bad on it's back side...basically the back window, trunk and rear bumper was covered in egg....noticed it at 12 last night so i sprayed some cleaner and rinsed it off, unfortunately i was fighting with cold weather and it was freezing, got to it today around 4pm, washed the car, clay bar and cleaner wax but I can't get rid of a couple nasty spots that look like a circled shattering....any ideas of getting rid of this, or is the paint screwed?? damn punks

Yeah, egg pretty much screws up your whole paint job.

Take it to a pro dtetailer, if you didn't wash it off right away.. yeah.. you're pretty much shell shocked screwed. Hope you have a low deductable to get a new paint job.

try this link for help.

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Use paper towel soaked in white vinegar water solution. No scratch X.

Egg does more damage than you think. Scratch X won't do crap.

I have had my car egged aswell and it sucks ***. I't ****ed my paint up big time. I was just glad my dads a car painter, so he was able to get to look like nothing ever happened.

I meant paint etching, not the egg residue.
