How to...Egg Damage Repair

My friend parked his car outside around 7PM before he went to take a quick nap before he went to work graveyard, he walked outside to see that his door had been egged, fortunately at most they could've been on his car only for about 2 and a half hours at most. but unfortunately his door had become a victim. I was able to save it 98% though....
Materials Used:
Makita Rotary Polsher w/ 3M UK Backing Plate
Distilled H20
3m 1000 Grit Sand Paper
Meguiars 2000 Grit Sand Paper
Meguiars 2500 Grit Sand Paper
Meguiars 3000 Grit Sand Paper
DD Flat Orange Pad w/ Meguiars M105
DD Flat Green Pad w/ Meguairs M205
Nattys Blue Wax
Poor Boys Blackhole aka CG EZ Creme "purple glaze"

He had washed the car prior to me helping him fix the door
First I clayed the area off for him.
Then Sprayed the area with the CG Clay lube and had at it with 1000 Grit
Then moved onto 2000
After I felt I was confident with 2000 I had at it with 2 passes of the m105, followed by a run in with the 2500 and 3000, before I worked up to the 205 and did 3 passes with the green pad,
Which I topped off with the Natty's blue wax and topped it off with the glaze.


Le Aftermath :(




After the 1000 Grit Wetsanding



During the passes of M105 with the orange pad:


Wetsanded with 2500 Followed up by 3000


After the passes with the M205, Wax + Glaze
And Viola

Nice save.

I've always though it was so bizarre how something as fragile as an egg can do so much damage to a car.
