Yrs, d

MrDmod - im afraid its not that simple. egging someones car is like dumping sugar in the gas tank.. its a prank that the perpetrator knows will do major damage if not dealt with ASAP. (that's why they do it!!)

cars without clearcoats tend to fare better, (and i think the squirrelmobile is a ivory 84 westy so its not clearcoated from the factory (unless it was repainted!!!) so the damage remains to be seen.

and seen for a long time. :(

my sisters acura (factory clearcoated ) was egged at college, and she didn't wash it off for weeks (shes a girl, girls dont wash cars LOL) and when she came home for break i tried to wash it off but too late.. clearcoat was ruined .. the enzymes in the eggyolk ate thru the clearcoat and down into the basecoat.. sitting for weeks baking in the hot sun didn't help either.
