WTF! someone egged my truck for no reason- how to?

first time happened to me

For no reason some one egged my truck on all over driver side (2 doors,windows).

oh man i was so pissed ...its now 37* outside-cold. the egged rotted and so hard to remove it..
it has no dent, chip, etc.

It was hit right between 2 doors by window (luky it didnt hit direct to window) then it splash all over it then drain toward bottom to door.

How ??? how to take care of paint on my truck? its 2004 F150 Supercrew..

I will try hot water to make it soft then rubbin it off...then??

advice, suggest will be great!

YOMAN!

People like that should have their teabags cut off!!
Sorry to hear that bro.

Eggs can really screw up paint, when they hit it is like broken glass hitting your truck. lots of jagged edges.
Do you have a drive up pressure washing place that has hot water?
If so that would be the best route, If you can pull it in the garage and snap some pics it would greatly help.
I'm going to warn you though, it may have done enough damage that you may have to think about a scuff and shoot fix.

I used very hot water from sink and keep it pour the egged drain area on doors.
it turns soft ( no eggs shell on the doors) then i lighty use cloth to clean it off and everything went good, no sign of stain of eggs,scrtach etc on doors. whew then i repeat 2x then used car wash soap then re wax it.. it look back to normal. whew.

Thanks!

The cold helped the fact that it did a lot less damage... if any. When it is cold, there is a less reaction to the paint.

If it was hot out, and it got egged during high noon... kiss your paint goodbye.
