Ever wanted to tar and feather a Hyundai?

Well they didn't use tar, but there's plenty of feathers. I found this earlier today at the dentist's office.







It looked like they used vasoline to stick the feathers to the car. I found out the car belongs to one of the staff. When the Cardinals (keep in mind I live in St Louis) were playing the Mets in the World Series she painted "Go Mets!" on the windows of a car belonging to one of the dentists at a companion office. The dentist said he saw more fingers that day than he'd seen in 10 years. This was her payback.

That'll buff right out, but I'm not doing it.

as long as there was no paint damage...i would probably just walk away in disgust, chuckle a bit to give them satisfaction and tell them to clean it up asap

Hey, considering what she pulled she had to be expecting something in return.

Re: Ever wanted to tar and feather and Hyundai?

I was at a hotel on Ft. Lauderdale beach a couple months back and a car pulled up with a newlywed couple. How did I figure this out? The car was covered in Ritz crackers that had been glued on with Cheez-Whiz or something and it spelled out "Just Married." The "artists" even put crackers in the center cap of the wheels. It's those little details that separate the true professional.

Ummm, a Dawn wash???

Do ya think the vasoline restored the paints "essential oils"??? Hey, you could market this as "paint rehydration"!!! Sell it to folks as a service, tell them that you'll apply a special formula to the paint for just $99 and they need to leave it in place for a week. Then when they come back a week later you can tell them there's a seperate $299 charge to remove it!

Maybe you could even mix in some 23K gold leaf with the vasoline, just like that detailer from Atlanta has in his Epiphany wax!
