Default Don't feed the birds because their crap will mess up your paint...

Went camping and left my car at a friends house. Came back and there was bird doo on my car. So I went to wash the car and washed off the doo. Doo came off but left a shadow on the paint. I used zymol wax/oxidizer remover thingy to remove most of it but I can't get the rest now matter how much i try. Whats good to take the blemish off the car?

Doon't feed the birds fries or pizza anymore!

Hand Glaze. It eats residue and has filler to bond tiny surface valleys.

Default Alot of bird crap is acidic and can eat your paint, get it off quickly . . .

some seeds are known only to germinate after being "scarified" by certain animals digestive juices, birds and beasts alike. When they say "Thats some bad ****" they mean it. I will often spit on a new bird **** and rub it lightly with my finger just to neutralize it, if I dont have a paper towel and some water handy.

Default Got same thing on Laser Red...significant etching.

I intend to try some glaze. Polishing them away is out of the question because the etch is so deep.
