I actually had to rub out claw marks from the plastic panel under my pass'r's side window once, from a cat "peeling out" as it jumped onto my roof. ARGH![B] haha, that was good randy.

I've been pointing out to everyone the mess that has been made of my hood. It's actually quite artistic. I have no plans to buff them out. Anyone wanna come key my car just for the satisfaction?? I wont care.

Bats

Ah Randy
it's so good to hear another with a Bat story.. I was sorta starting to feel a bit odd.. um wait that's normal.

Nothing like a rat with wings saying HI what's up.. I like them on the OUTSIDE of the car Vs fluttering around my feet..

That a wee bit too close for me...

I never have really figured it out what is it about my cars Bats like. Sorta funny seeing them dive down, and back up. I've yet to hit one, or it hit me...

Using a clay bar made the finish shiney and smooth like it had been waxed. Starting with a good surface should make any wax job better. I have two cats who would like to treat my SVX like a scratching post...hhhhmmmm I wonder if I could clay bar the cats and rub them out...hhhhmmmm?

clayed cats

Rubbing out Cats with Clay bars may prove to be a mess. as well as bloody..

However Dipping cats in Clay Mud would not be.. Water down some Sheet rock mud, stir it around so it's not to thick and lumpy.. Drop in one cat.. You may have to push'em in and stir cat/mud mixture around a little.
If it's a 5 gallon bucket, you may could fit both cats in at once..

Might make a mess though. when done Hang to dry...

Both cats are sure to love ya afterwards.

p.s. No. I have not tried this. Might be fun though.

Happy Mudden..

I've heard replacing the kitty litter with wet cement works as well

Would the clay remove imperfections in the cats? One prob, I've tried giving a cat a bath, the bathroom and I ended up soaked while the cat was barely damp. I imagine clay would be even worse.

I have a cat and I think it's good luck to have a cat on the hood (and bad luck to have one under a wheel).
