A bird poo the size of my palm just landed on my Z today. Got out of work, and didn't even notice it until I got home. Went to Autozone and bought this RainX bug&tar remover. Washing it off once the sun goes down. I have never seen a bird pudding that huge and messy. (Pics available) Any recommendations before the wash would be appreciated. Thanks

 

lol

 

Hahah you took a picture of it.. looks like some hawk ****

 

(O_o) says: WTF? LOL

 

i've seen worse...especially on my van which i havne't washed for over 2 years...there's crap piled on top of crap, it's like the bird's aim for the "clean" spots because they can't stand it when it's not covered in ****

 

Get a soaked towel and let it rest over the spot for a few minutes. Once the poo soaks up the water, then gently take the towel and remove the poo from that area. Then take your bug/tar remover and spray it on top. Wipe down.

After that, I would use a claybar and do that entire area. Hopefully the acid from the poo didn't eat anything away or leave a stain on the clearcoat. Look at the area from an angle to see if there is a stain.

BTW - that added 5 hp to your car.

You realize that you can't gain 5 hp by doing that, right?

Only NOS stickers can do that for you.. get it right!

 

Nasty dude!

 

lol, damn, thats a big a$$ bird

 

haha wtf was that an eagle that **** on your Z? lol damn

 

maybe it was a seagull, i've had sh*t like that on my car whenever i park at the harbor

 

taking pix of ****...you bored? As for recomendations before you wash it....lick it.

 

I would have grabbed a hose and wash mitt before I grabbed my camera.

dude that clearcoat is def gonna be etched a bit there!!! that sucks,, what the hell was that a Condor?

 

looks like that bird had some indian food before it shat on your Z haha.

 

remember the end of the last jurassic park? i always wondered where those terradactyles were going to end up after they ended up escaping from that huge bird cage and were flying over the ocean. i guess they finally made it to cali.

 

Well, I just finished washing my car and I must say that the RainX bug&tar remover worked really well, highly recommended. I just sprayed it on the poo, let it sit for 3 minutes, easily wipes off, then its ready for a car wash. During the wash, I notice there was more drops of poo, bits on the windshield and hood. I checked the car, and didn't notice any damage to the paint, I just got lucky. That bird sure made my day. I don't even live near the beach or the mountains. Not sure what kind of bird was it. Well, thanks for input guys.

 

you should have got a sample and had it analyzed... so that you could find out what kind of bird it was... then you can start a feud against the species...lol

 

I had one that size too, maybe even a little bigger. I'll have to dig up the pics from my camera phone.

 

Just so you know, bird poo etchings in the paint go away on their own after a couple of days. Just have to remove the big bits as you did with a quick detailer. Do not use water, as it reactivates the acid in the poo.
