Why woudl it be a joke??

I imagine a nice layer of wax will prevent the eggs harming the paint for a little while, but you should still clean it off asap.

WHy would it be a joke... my friends got egged.. it totally facked up their Integra's paint job overnight....[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/IMG] The Eagle One wax and polish i have, says it protect paint from Bird crap... and it does cause the bird crap comes off so easily... and yes i've had bird crap on my car without the E1 polish on before, had to do a bit of scrubbing, with th E1 on the paint just a lil water it slides off...just wondering if it'd have the same proteciton against eggs[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] just in case

If you get egged, you need to remove it as soon as possible. It will destroy the paint. I dont know why it does or what in the egg makes it do it but it happen to me a few halloweens ago. My car got egged and I didnt clean it off till the next day...and I couldnt get it off....It dried to the paint.....I had to bring it to a body shop to have it removed....

just wash it off ASAP wax will do little to prevent. The best thing is to park in a garage if it's available otherwise you have no choice people can really suck
