    The good news is that by the time it does hit your truck (if it does) - it will have dried mostly (or been to heavy to be carried by the wind and fell long before it got to your truck anyway). So I think that, especially if you have a recent coat of wax on there, it will come off quite easily.

    Certainly not the smartest thing to be doing that so close to parked vehicles, and obviously they would be responsible for paying any costs associated with fixing the paint, from a legal liability standpoint.

    Classic case of being unaware of their surroundings (or only caring about their job). Ugh, that sucks.
    I have learned through stupid mistakes that some paints come off of cars fairly easily with a little soap and persuasion. No idea about the paint they were using, and I sure hope the droplets dried up as the wind blew them to your truck.

    The company paid me to get my truck washed which didn’t remove the paint specs. They’re now paying $325 for detailing my truck and at least 5 others. Acetone removes the specs

    Make sure that whatever they do to get the paint off...that you get a nice coat of wax on it when it comes back to you (unless they do that as well) - because there definitely won't be any left on it when they're done.

    Was about to post something similar.... a nice clearcoat polishing will get it right out and it gives u an excuse to get it sealed with nano ceramic.

    Yeah I bought some really nice detailing stuff over the past few years (I used to detail cars ... 25 years ago ... and have always loved it since). I will be applying my own ceramic as soon as it's nice out for about a week or so. I applied it to the Volvo nearly 2 years ago and it's still got some protection on it. My secret to making it last is that I do not wash them too often...but when I do wash them, I wash them really well.

    None to speak of, just enjoying it for the moment.
    Did a quick thing today, added the bed step, took no time and very handy, I like it!
