Just wondered as i have been coated in a fine layer of this at work & i no it is slightly abrasive so dont wana just rub it off
Car wash obviously out, i don't have a jet wash or even a hose normally just use sponge etc but dunno if i even fancy doing that:
Was hoping it would just blow off but seems a little more stubborn than that & dont really wana leave it melting on the bonnet too long
Bring on yer cunning plans then peaps

Lots of water and not a lot of rubbing. I've got to do the same tonight too but with concrete powder. A chimney is being demolished at work and the wind carried the dust onto the car park. A claim for expenses will be before the Environmental Manager tomorrow morning!

Thumbs up

Take you car to a garage and use their jet wash.

Just don't stand to close to start with. Oh and use the cold wash mode first.

A colleague of mine's son had his car covered in gobs of hot metal when they were welding on a building site next to his office carpark. 15 cars had to be resprayed, and one guy had a 2 day old jeep cherokee and made them replace it!
