well at least it came off in your driveway and not on the road


I wish this happened in my drive way..

It wasn't really a garage that it hit, but I don't know what to call it, It's like a porch..without the porch in the middle of somebody's yard, and they make tombstones and those big rocks that you can buy and have your last name/design on and sit in your yard or by your steps or whatever. It hit a pillar that is holding up the roof.

It could have been a lot worse though, it could of hit some kids because there were about 25 kids on the sidewalk beside me because school just got out and I live close to three schools.

I believe Westmarine or a boat parts supplier will have stuff to remove scuffs from rubber.

semi-related side story: I came home from work, and a bunch of stuff that was up on the window in the kitchen was laying in the sink.

I started yelling at the cats, thinking they knocked it all off...

Later I took the dog out and saw the grill laying on its side and a tire laying in the back yard. While I was trying to figure out where the tire came from I heard a diesel idling and a guy screaming on a phone.

I asked him if he lost a tire, and he said he did.

He was towing a car for his boss, the the guy only had 2 lung nuts on each wheel. While driving down the road, he saw the tire pass him and bounce off the curb and over the fence.

It apparently bounced through 4 yards, hit our grill, hit the frame of the kitchen window and ended up in our back yard.

There is still a scuff on the window frame I need to get off... Anyone know what takes rubber off of white vinyl?

So... that is what I would concider something "flying off" and hitting a garage :grin:

pick up some stuff from home depot its called "karnak" it comes in a spray bottle for like 5 bucks. im a roofer and when we do rubber roofs if our dumbass laborers drop any rubber and it hits vinyl we use that stuff. takes it right off. also good for getting grease off the hands:thumbsup:
