Yeah, technology is amazing. Now people can write obscene things on their cars and wipe it off right after! Risk-free!!

*senses that his dirty car will soon have writing on it*

Let's just remember that it's a pain to get off the windows (nigh on impossible) if it gets baked on (like in the AZ summer/early fall heat).

I personally always used white shoe polish. Supposedly it can damage paint is applied directly, but I never saw it happen (not that I was the one doing that of course)

That's a nice cheap alternative.

There are stupid questions:

What color was George Washington's white horse?

How much do things cost at the Dollar Store?

Why does it burn when I urinate?

Black as a polar bear.
More than they're worth.
Leaning too close to the campfire.

Bacon, or some other ham.

Feyd and I must be old-fashioned.
I also had only heard of using white shoe polish (like after weddings, etc.)

Never knew they were now making a specific "car window paint" that you can get at your local Wal-Mart. What will they think of next?

Plain old tempera paint will wash off pretty easily. You can use it to paint your windows at Christmas, too--my SIL does hers (and sometimes mine) every year.

My brother always told me that stupid questions deserve stupid answers.
And I too always thought it was soap. I've also seen commercials for a foam type substance that you can write on cars with.

Tempera paint is wonderful, wonderful stuff. If you mix it 1 part liquid dishsoap to 2 parts paint, it will rinse easily off almost any surface: house windows, faces, children's hands, and yes, even car windows...
