This morning I was washing my car and had the wipers flipped up to wash the windshield. I then decided to wipe down the engine bay. Not thinking, I opened the hood with the wipers still flipped up. The result was two scratches (thankfully not large ones, but ones that will need to be touched up, kind of like a rock chip) on the lip of the hood and paint transfer onto the wiper arm. Time to order a bottle of touchup paint....

On a related note, what`s the best way to remove the transferred paint from the wiper arms and the hood?
