Angry Bird **** Stains On My Paint!!!

I just washed my car today, and I noticed two small brown spots on my paint (Silverstone). Those were underneath some really small bird craps…. I tried to clean the spots, but could not remove the stains!
Damn bird ****!!! It stain my paint! I can’t believe it! What are those birds eating??? Is there a way to remove those marks????

Use zaino on it. My friends car got stained from bird dropping that were left on in the summer sun, and i put 5 coats of zaino over that area and it was gone.

yeah. reason being is that bird crap is acidic. studying bio really help here. :P.. well yeah it's acidic and not to mention that it's like all watery and stuff so it just splats all over the car. if you don't remove it fast, it cuts right though the paint.

I use Meguilar Scratch X, it took me about 1-2 hour to remove it until you can't really notice or tell where is it anymore. And my colour is Daytona Blue as well.
But do you have a polish coats on it already? If you do how many?

If not. I think you need to clean that area using dawn, then use Scratch X a lot of time until the clear coat almost flattened. Then I use Z-5 (zaino) right after it.

Hope that's help

the other guy is right. Bird doo doo is acitic (sp?).
It will eat right through the paint if left on there to long.
Try a clay bar if the above advice does not work

Why would a claybar help remove a patch where clearcoat/paint has been eaten away?

Which Zaino product did you use ? The Z-5 ?

Thanks,

Because it is a slow process of eating away the clear coat. If bird crap has been on a long time, it can sometimes be removed with abrasives. Depends how long though

It takes a while for the bird **** to really do damage. My coworkers 00 Hyandai had the same **** on the hood the whole summer and left a permanent stain. Most people dont care about their cars. I always clean it off within a day. Someday I'm getting a shotgun and blow those birds!
