Brake Fluid on Paint question

[rango88]

Yesterday while checking my brake fluid, some of it dripped on my fender, I thought no big deal, I used a soft dry cloth and carefully wiped it clean.

Today I learned that its corrosive to paint, so I quickly take another cloth, use soap and water to rub off whatever excess there was from yesterday. tomorrow I am going to the car wash.

Do you think my paint is now damaged?

i think youre alright because you wiped it off

^^Agreed. I think since you caught it so quick you will be fine. If it sar for a few hours or more, then you should worry

thanks for the input guys, I had a 2nd glance at the fender once it was dry and it looks good, still going to the car wash as my truck has mud on it

You should be good since you wiped it off quickly.
A good wash, maybe even buff it out just for the old belt & suspenders approach wouldn't hurt :thumbsup:
