Try WD-40.

Try a soft cloth soaked in Simple Green and let it lay on the yoke for a little bit. Keep it wet and out of the direct sun and it should soften up. I did it recently and got some unknown sticky substance off my tonneau cover.
Scrubbing may scratch it.

I've had softdrink garbage in the bed, and recently, some sticky candy junk...

Titan needs a camera security system, and some sort of phalanx machine gun...

a few things I would try are, goo off, and mr. clean magic eraser. what paart of your mirror is the yolk stuck on?

get a wet cloth and put it over the affected area for 1 hour. Then resoak and apply the same thing again for another hour. Afterwards, it should've absorbed enough water to make it easy to clean.

Good luck

I'm with jollysammy on this one. There is jealousy out there for these trucks. One of my neighbors drive a Chevy Avalanche, the other drives a Dodge Ram, and the other guy drives a Ford F150. The car I traded for my Titan was a Chevy Tahoe. We all used to gather and car talk all the time. Now that I have the Titan, they all look at me like I've done something wrong. Not much conversation this last week since I've gotten the Titan.

In short, and as crazy as it may sound, take that egging as a compliment. It shows how envious someone is about your truck, or it could be kids with nothing else better to do, which is shameful.

Had a punk kid shout 'get a real truck' at the light (twice). The kid was hanging out the rear window making sure I heard him. I just ignored him. I firgured this stuff would happen with this truck but egg?? thats pretty bad.

You could alway's take the mirror off and put it in the dishwasher..

Nismom · 08-12-2005, 09:51 PM

Happened to me, too, like a week or so after I bought it.

Hate to say it, but that stuff is not coming off. Eggs are very acitic and that stuff is in your paint for good I'm afraid. If it's just on the mirror I would think about buying a new mirror or living with what you have. I know what I would do.

Well I just joined the "keyed club" sometime during this week. I got to washing my truck and someone got the rear part of the left side back fender between the wheel and the tailgate. Fortunately, whoever this azzwipe was didn't do a very good job of it but I'm sure there will be some kind of mark left no matter what I do. What is with people like that?
