A VANDAL damaged 26 parked cars in one road.
Bleach was sprayed on the vehicles, all parked up in Warren Road, Banstead, between 7 and 11am on Friday, January 4.
Reigate and Banstead neighbourhood inspector Richard Haycock said: "Clearly this was an impactive and disturbing event for the people involved.
"It has potentially caused thousands of pounds worth of damage, but we hope that in most cases the damage can be washed or polished off.
"We are investigating the full circumstances around it and have the identity of someone we would like to speak to in relation to these offences.
"A number of residents saw what happened and were able to identify the person allegedly responsible and our enquiries continue."
Anyone with information should call police on 101.
