If you are covered from vandalism...it should

Also, try using scratch doctor or just bring the car to a detailer, I'm sure it can be buffed out

My car was egged in the summer... luckily it was at night and I washed it at night probably a few hours after it happened.

Not a good idea to go through insurance for that type of incident.



Updates?

Meguiars Cleaner Wax, ultimate polish and a towel are your cheapest possible fixes. Chances are you will need a heavy cut polish and polishing pad to get it 100% again tho.

I agree with everyone else, Wax and Buff. There's a Buffer forsale at Canadian tire, 3 pads. Should do wonders! I use Mothers wax, but I'm not biased on waxs, yet. Make sure it's a wax, and not the Nu wax that isn't wax.

Vandels suck. Too bad for your luck.

lol... i can just picture that phone call to insurance going down...

OP: 'yes, someone "egged" my car... and I want to file a claim for damage to the hood"
INS: 'Sir...what kind of an egg are we talking about here that can cause damage to a steel hood?'
OP: '... it was a dinosaur egg. I think a pterodactyl dropped it from the sky"

egg can cause a lot of damage to the paint... if it happens during a hot day, and the owner isn't aware, it would turn out to be a very valid claim. I mean IF the car was heavily egged. It would probably be cheaper to replace a hood rather then pay a deductible which can be anywhere from $100 - $2000 depending on what you agreed too.
