Yay my car has been vandalised.
« on: 21 January 2007, 11:06 »
 :cry:

my boyfriend just informed me that someone has written 'nob head' in marker pen on my bonnet.

I am SO f**king pissed off

The sooner I move out of chivesville the better  :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

Anyone had to take marker pen off before??

Fairly sure you could T-Cut it out. Bet they didn't spell it right either!

god how awful for you :sad:

Bloody little scrotes all need locking up!

I'm stuck in work so cant do anything about it right now, thats why I thought I'd get some advice first.

Nearest thing to tcut I've got it AG paint restorer, hopefully that'll work ok *fingers crossed*

thats awful. what ever gives these pillocks the idea that they have a right to do something like that to other people's stuf. Sounds like a good excuse for a good clean and polish if nothin else (sorry, tryin to find a positive for ya)

thats the best mk3 ive seen..ever! its just clean and subtle.. :cool:

my brothers rover (my old car) had the word c**t keyed into the bonnet on christmas eve night - his christmas present from the local chavs i guess.

he wasnt too chuffed when i woke him up and told him on christmas day morning.  :undecided:


I don't think a semi will give the same results

T- cut will take marker pen straight off, but you may be making hard work for yourself, especially if you car has a good paint finish, youll end up polishing the whole bonnet.. instead , just try waxing the bonnet instead, much less effort required, and better finish, most good quality waxes will take marker pen straight off.  Old t-shirt material makes excellent polishing cloth.

I'd start with water, then soapy water, then WD40 etc.  Depending on what kind of pen they used it might come straight off :)
Start mild and work your way up ;)
