Default Egg yolk ate through clear coat

Someone egged my car and it was too late for me to wash it off in time. I cleaned off the egg and everything, but afterwards, it left a mark on the car... Is there any way for me to repair this? Maybe wax, clay?

Please help!

wax is a sealant. Clay won't take it out unless it's embedded on the surface. Only way is wetsanding then polishing it out. Then you can wax over that once finished.

Thx. Is there a tutorial where i can find more info on wetsanding and polishing? Do I have to do it within a certain amount of time before the damage turns permanent?

a. Is the clearcoat stained?

b. Is the paint damaged or gone?

Photos are helpful.
