Bird Droppings

Bird poo stains can not only ruin your paints appearance but they also cut deep into the Phsyce of car and enthusiasts. There is nothing worse than polishing and looking after your new car, parking it in all the right places away from potential harm, garaging and so only to be away for just one hour and return to find you have been selected by mother nature for a nice big stain right in the worst place possible.
There is some good news here.
Restoration and paint correction technology has advanced dramatically in recent years but the onus of having these issue corrected in on you the owner.
If you are to have any hope a few steps must be followed.

Step 1. Remove immediately. A tissue and some fresh water is perfect. Place the tissue over the stain and tip enough water on to completely soak. This will soften the mess and make it easy to remove. In most cases this is enough to stop the burning process in its tracks.
2. Check to see if a stain is present. If stain is removed quickly and you have been polishing / treating your paint then it is likely to only have marked the clear coat if at all.
3. If a stain is present then make your way to a detailer and directly ask the question if they are able to remove the marks in your clear coat. It is very important that your detailer shows knowledge in this area.
4. Make sure the area is properly sealed up with good quality polish or if the area has been professionally treated with a protection to have it reapplied to affected area after repair is complete.

Time is the biggest factor here. Regular maintenance of paint will offer a much better resistance and prolong the time you have to remove things that may cause damage.
