DEF spill
Had my truck serviced at a near by dealer this past Saturday and this is how they returned it, with DEF spilled on the paint ( Tuxedo Black )
How corrosive is this stuff and since I cleaned it up right away, has the paint been compromised ?
Thanks

It's mostly livestock urine. You'll be okay.

stuff happens, but get a water hose and wash the damn thing off before you send it out the door.
spill that stuff on the floor and 10 mins later there is a crusty white stain in its place. Burns like hell if you get it on your skin. I hate it.
