What did you do to your Hellcat today?

It should be a relatively easy fix

 

[TorRedHellgato]

Hope so!

Paint should be a non issue
But
Be careful with those stripes

I hope some people have a bit of karma coming
Like run over by a cement truck

Whatever you do, get it off ASAP!!! Over time the marker dye might leech into the clearcoat and stripes and become impossible to remove.

The clear polyurethane is very tough, you can clean it with lacquer thinner, but I wouldn't let it touch the stripes.

Another good cleaner is gojo not the one with pumise just the ordinal

If I found out who the fist fuckers were that did that...I'd break out the baseball bat...(Italian back up weapon)...and I'd be shattering hands and fingers....(and it aint even my car)....

I have used the orange gojo to remove paint from plastic! Great stuff!!! I put my SSN on a V1 radar detector with a paint pen, then wanted to sell it. Let it soak a bit and the paint came right off! Haven't tried it on clear coat.

That concert was on the 16th. I didnt go look at the car until this past Sunday and I dropped the car at the shop yesterday. Still no word from the shop

I always use gojo after going to the track and takes rubber off....but I would construction asphalt paving and you may or may not know about prime that layed down before the asphalt and when we drive thru it no cleaner with remove it. But gojo with take it off you dont put it on and let soak in rub it on and rub it off.The orange has pumice what we use it solid white. if you let leave it on very long it wont mostly eat thru the clearcoat

Just waiting to hear back from the body shop. I am so pissed and bummed about this.


Just got off the phone with the Manager of the Garage and hes telling me go through my insurance so my insurance (Geico) will go after their insurance. They are just doing that so they dont have to come out of pocket for anything and the insurance will take care of it. I started off nice with the guy then started screaming after that nonsense he said.

I am not doing that. Put in a claim so it goes on my history, my rates go up, and my carfax gets messed up.

What I am going to do is get this fixed and hand them the bill. If you dont want to pay it, I will see you in court

Idk, but did you know sharpie removes sharpie.
Go out to your Hellcat and know if this works,it will take time. Take a sharpie and a cloth, draw over a letter and wipe. See if it works and comes off. You can also try in a spot and using a Mr Clean sponge. one letter at a time.

I wipe on old English lemon polish before racing and the rubber comes off.
Im a female so I do things different but it works!

Took my 2019 Redeye in for a Freon top off and after that started getting the "IC coolant level low" warning. Rather than have another tech mess with my car I decided to use the bleeding method described by Alain in his May5, 2020 post. Worked like a charm! Many thanks...

Also, after this experience, decided against doing the Stage2 upgrade as I just don't want anyone messing with my car. The dealer quoted me a cost of $5500 dollars and then added that if they were unable to remove the SC pulley the SC snout would need to be replaced bringing the total cost to $7,600. I've purchased great running cars for less than that!
