Paint stripper was dumped all over an Audi as it was parked on its owner's drive.
The furious owner took to social media to share images of the seemingly unprovoked attack. Paint stripper thought to be 'nitromors' had been poured on the vehicle overnight outside their Rainhill home in the early hours of April 15.
By the morning, when the damage was discovered, large amounts of the paint to the front of the luxury car had been seriously damaged. Damage to the bumper and headlights can also be seen.
