Bird Poop
 
I have this growing problem...

If I don't wash my cars everyday, bird poop (that gets on my cars daily) will bake on from the AZ sun in a matter of hours. Sometimes a regular wash doesn't even get most of it off. If I don't get it off immediately- it stains the paint.

Anyone have tricks for getting crap off?

Any tips or coatings that'll make it easier to get off?

I was looking into this:

Anyone try it? Will it mar my clear coat?

A random orbital buffer with some good rubbing compound and a nice pad will do the trick.

Yeah just get a DA and a cutting pad. I prefer the meguiars.

I would just hit all the spots every few washes. There's not much else you can do other than get it off ASAP.

Bird crap and bug guts are acidic and will destroy a clear coat over time. Need a new parking spot lmao.

Can't really move my driveway lol. Found out vinegar and water mix works pretty well with some elbow greese.

Excatly!

Bird bombing will destroy your clear coat.

Find another parking spot, or car cover....

If you have a darker color vehicle; dark blue, black
The acidic will deff stain easier on darker vehicles.

Either way bird bombs will leave a stain on clear, only way of really fixing it is to paint and clear coat again.

zombiewolf513 05-10-2016 09:12 PM

We all know it stains lol. Any solutions?

People have already told you
Buffer + Compound

pacotaco345 05-11-2016 01:36 PM

you can only cut and buff so many times before you go through the clearcoat, though. get one of those popup garage thingys

jedi03 05-11-2016 02:45 PM

respray after a minute...if you cut an buff through the clear coat you have done to much for sure!

zombiewolf513 05-11-2016 02:51 PM

I think I'm gonna go with plastidip. Save the paint from the sun, the bird poop, the light door dings.

jedi03 05-11-2016 03:13 PM

that's a nice fix! jerks hit my new car just the other day...sigh its just a car its just a car...

this would be alright if his area never has wind, if the car is outside and wind blows against the car cover, it will rub the paint off the corners of the car.
