I want to check this against the collective knowledge of Geekzone before I go any further...

Yesterday, I drove my car through a patch of wet paint on the road.  A truck ahead of me must have had a problem with its cargo, and dropped some white paint on the road.  I didn't realise it was wet, and drove through it.  Later that day, I saw that the front and rear left tyres were splashed with white paint, and the side skirting was also splashed with white paint.  By the time I noticed, it had dried (that's when I realised it must have been wet paint on the road).  I haven't had a chance to try cleaning it off, but suspect it might be difficult.  I have no idea what type of paint it is.

I'm wondering whether this is claimable under my AMI car insurance policy.  I know I can ring them and find out, but I'm curious whether others think this is worth claiming for.  I can't see anything in the policy which precludes it (it refers to "damage" but doesn't define damage).  The only issue is whether the cost to fix it (presumably either a professional valet service or a repaint) would exceed the excess (about $300 if memory serves).  Is this the kind of thing you think would justify an insurance claim?  For some context, it's a 1999 Toyota Altezza, painted silver (so it shows up, but's it's not a huge contrast.  At the moment, it just looks like a mud splash.
