I'm 99% sure that a wash and good wax is gonna get rid of it.
I guess the moral of the story is, if it's a prank write it on the windows. If it is vandalism look out 'cause you 'bout to get got.

Id rent a buffer and polish it out - maybe use some rubbing compound but polish lightly so you dont swirl scratch. use clean or even new bonnets and it'll shine like a new penny!

Sorry about the porcine reference there pig- didn't even think about that one. Guess BBQ might have been a better choice of word.
Where does all this hate stem from anyways? I never heard such frequent usage of the word buckeye until I started climbing-
I think people just like saying 'buckeye'. You never hear people say "Ohioan go home"- or how about "Stuck Ohioan" or "Ohioan Testpiece",
makes em' sound like nice folk. I prefer 'flatlander' anyways, I don't want people from Michigan to feel left out.

Those just don't have the same ring to them. It's funny, we used to make fun of buckeyes (mainly of the touron variety) who invaded "our" area on holiday weekends. I had friends from Cinci who told me buckeye jokes I hadn't heard before. What's the best way to see Ohio? In the rear view mirror.
At the same time, they'd take the piss out of us "hillbillies". Never took any of it too serious.And we used to look up to Ohioans like Souders who were doing all those hardass trad climbs back in the day.Bcombs, it sucks some a-hole would do that to your car. That shit is completely out of order.

Damn. That sucks.
Whomever did this I would recommend contacting Mr. Combs and apologizing. Getting the damages out will be easy. So that problem will go away, but it was your mistake. Own up to it!!

karma's a bunch of bull shit, but so is messing with someones car. If it was a prank, then they already fucked up by not owning up to it so it went from...haha, now pay up dicks, to let me get my quick draws to use as brass nuckles.
And speaking of touron buckeyes, the first thing they asked me in the winchester ER when I said I got hurt at the red was "are you from ohio?" Go to half moon rock on any given weekend in the summer and you will quickly learn where fifo came from, and why the winchester ER would ask that question first.

The ignorance of humans is apalling. I'm sorry that this happened. We all need to watch out for stupid behavior at all of the climbing areas , and speak up whenever we see it happen. Sorry for your troubles.
