    Within a week there had been a complaint filed against her for “vandalizing” someone’s door… by taping an apology note on there.

    I’ve seen tape rip paint off when it’s removed. The door has to be removed, sanded back (the entire door, not just where the tape was… because door paint fades and you can’t match the color). A door needs three coats of hard wearing slow drying paint - has to dry overnight between coats… making it a four day job.

    Worst of all, the door has to be horizontal while the paint dries - so that’s four days with no front door. Not an option. They will usually just replace the door and that can cost thousands (but at least it won’t leave you without a front door for days).

    If you want to leave a note for someone - use the letterbox.

    Good times.

    Yeah see that shit just isn’t worth it. I had a neighbour threaten to pour milk into a work colleague’s car door once. Car doors are full of noise insulation material that would have soaked up the milk and gone mouldy/started to stink. Costs a fortune to fix that.

    Best thing to do in my opinion is call the police, anonymously. If it’s not worth a formal complaint then it’s not worth complaining at all.

      Car doors are hollow mate.

      How do you expect all the mechanisms for door locking/unlocking/opening and windows to fit in there?

      Might be some rubber sound deading mat stuck to one side on a really high in car, but theres nothing absorptive inside the door.
