Holli Molli,Here's me thinking Ven will be sitting content munching a couple of half coated biscuits. Take a peek at the forum and more unsettling pic's. Ven can you feel the scratches with finger nail. I will not sleep easy tonight gale outside and now this,it will be rolling in my mind all-night as to what it is. Had a mate who was pestered by seagulls his was silver and they seemed to think it was looking like water pond etc, they would only just touch it before lifting off.Nipped local body work shop(had alloys powder coated in past there and know their stuff). J the owner isn’t in till tomorrow so getting this recommended detailer info off him then.
So lads come out, had a look, straight away said “ looks like a sponge that with grit in” . Now they kind of know me (not like go to pub together thing) but know it’s not me. Obviously you would know if you have grit in a sponge if washing a car.
It’s not happened to me in 30yrs on / off of washing anyway. Not to mention I don’t wash by hand this time of year as too cold. Plus use jet to get crap off from the roads(salt).
He did say it’s very possible it’s happened at Toyota , as they are not going to be paying car washers big money, just another car….. But I can’t prove that as they can’t prove I’ve not🤷🏻♂️.
So going to see a detailer and get a price over the next week , I’m not 100% but it’s defo the most reasonable possibility ,for the random scratches over it. Even though I’ve not hand washed it (or anyone else has either ).
Jet wash, always jet the dust and crap off first, nothing has changed there in near 30yrs. As said never happened this before , ever! and never had a brand new car, this is the first.
But this is nasty 💩, I was thinking a sponge would be circular motions not straight drags etc. I don't drink but this would send me looking one. More of the story to come.🤔.
