I spent 6+ hrs fixing my car of swirls last week, got her all cleaned up and upp'd back to the way she is supposed to be....

my wife comes home last night leaves the garage open for 5 minutes while i get ready to go play tennis...on my way to tennis i can see paw prints on my windshield and was thinking to myself wtf over...

i get home from tennis and the damn thing took a stroll up the windsheild around the roof and back down the windsheild....the car is soo slick the thing slid down the hood and left a trail of swirl marks where it slid....shit!!

i think its only swirled where the cat slid on the hood so i think i might be able to get away with a pass of poliseal and black pad and reapply the upp....

 

Trap the cat and give it a new home ... thats what I did ... warned the neighbor first that it was THIER problem and when they wouldn't deal with it .. I did .

 

 

there is no doubt that if i catch the cat in my garage that it will be relocated....its really my(wifes) fault as the garage was left open for all of 3 minutes max....oh well, again vinnie learns yet another lesson the hard way.....i swear, if there is an easy way and a hard way to learn a lesson, i aways seem to be finding the hard way to do it....

anyway, i hit the hood with some quick detailer to clean up one spot and used alittle poliseal by hand and it seemed to clean up the minor swirls, so i plan on washing today and hitting the whole hood with poliseal and black pad/udm and then follow it up withh upp again....otherwise, i dont think he did any damage where he walked and didnt slide....

 

Thank the owner on the other hand for either having the cat declawed or for trimming the nails. Ive seen enough nail induced "skid marks" to make me sick.....I can see your wife now:
"It's not my fault! If you didn't play tennis we wouldn't be having this problem!"

 

^indeed... i was gonna say your lucky that cat didn't use his claws to stop him from sliding... my dad has an 83 benz that my grandparents passed down to him and my cats have completely scratched the whole trunk of the car... f*ckin stupid animals... cats suck

 

yep, she came out to the garage to see what i was doing, and when i told her the story she was like i suppose its my fault....ofcourse i took the exit ramp at this time and said no, ofcourse its not your fault...

 

haha way to play it smooth...

 

I have the same problem I hate cats they suck. I hope i move soon so i can get a garage

 

I haven't had any problems with the neighbors cats until this past week when I saw paw prints on my windshield. Didn't see any scratches on the paint, which is a good thing. Wife said, "why not trap them and take them to the Humane Society"? We'll see if the problem continues.

 

Were you able to lift the remaining scratches?

+1 Hate cats.

+1 Lucky cat didn't have talons.

+1 Good exit strategy for the wifey.

+1 Hope to get a garage soon.

 

yea, it wasnt a real issue, i hit the hood with a little poliseal and black pad with my udm and it came right out.....i followed it with upp....

 

Vin, enough! Your turning me on!!!

 

I have the same prob. Every fuckin week I have a cat walk on my car. My parents have like 5 of them bithches. Put it like this, every time I wash my car I see cat prints on the damn thing 95% of the time, the other 5% is luck I guess... I say put some rat poison in some cat food and put it in ur garage!

 

from what i understand a dish of antifreeze will work too....

 

Pit Bull?

 

thats supposed to work too, but then there is the dog crap you have to clean up, not to mention the cost of food and stuff.....

 

Put out an ad on Craigslist advertising the description of their cat...

Pick it up or else it's

dude, thats just wrong....too funny

 

I saw your other post and though you might get a kick!

 

 

its all about the love......

 

I have never had a cat leave anything more than paw prints on my cars, but I have had dogs leave scratches on my doors when the dog jumps on the door.

 

There was a cat that did this everytime I detailed my car, the next day you could see where it slept on the roof at night and then walked off. I always thought that it liked the smell of the QD that I used. So I switched to 4*. He never came back...

 

that would be really cool if the 4 star spray wax was like kryptonite to cats....or some kind of piss from another animal that the cat was afraid of....
