If someone purposely spills paint on my car, will insurance cover it?
I had my car parked on the street to go into a business. When I came back out, someone had poured paint over the hood. Will insurance cover the cost of this?

“The car insurance company might cover this incident, but it’s 100% dependent on what (type of insurance)[

liability insurance
only, this won’t be covered. But if you have comprehensive insurance
, you’re more than likely covered by your car insurance provider, as these policies tend to cover vandalism. Call your car insurance company to see what steps to take, and whether you should file a police report.
