Angry Bird poop got baked on my hood !!!

I parked my car under a tree this time. The weather was super hot in here today with a LOT of sunshine.

Got back to find an art work on my hood and I guess it got baked well under the sun for a whole day.

I Removed the bombs, and washed the car but no luck, that you can still see the spots on the hood with a fainted color. So I washed the spots more and more, but no luck either.

Help me PLEASE on what I should do.

My beautiful CS has beacme a bird's victim

I had a similar issue on my 911.

I used Griot's Garage Fine hand polish about 40 times until I finally got it out. The fine hand polish is gentle, that is why i had to use it so much. I got it out, finally, and the coated it with Griot's best of show wax. Completely gone.

You could also try 3M IHG (Imperial Hand Glaze)- pretty safe. If that does not work, use 3M SMR (Swirl Mark Remover) followed by your favorite wax (I am big fan of Zaino) Should do the trick.

Keep a micro fibre towel and a bottle of detailing spray (or club soda) in the back to get bird doo off fast- remember to blot, don't rub....

I was in the city and the car was CLEAN. Got on the highway to arrive home and as soon as I got out of the car I found a new BIGGER art work on my the hood again !!!!!! !!!!!!

How can these little damn animals throw their bombs while flying over the highway?? I guess their butts are equipped like the F-16!!

CayenneS: The birds bombed my car even before I read your advice, I don't know if I still want to mess with them

Hey no joke, what you are about to hear is a true story... unfortunately..

I did a major overhaul in terms of detailing my cayenne, about 12 hours total (everything from waxing to cleaning the aluminum trim, etc.)

I did the above about a week ago today, and since then my car has had bird CrappA on it two times! Yes TWO TIMES!! Both times the car was parked, and no where near trees! How is that for bad luck? Wait theres more, both times it was on the same freaking door! And boy they were the biggest bird craps i ever seen, the one that happened tonight was like in three different areas of the door... freaking bird i swear..

So dont feel too bad, at least it didnt happen twice in about 4 days after doing a major detailing job! lol..

(LOL) I guess it’s the month of the POOOOOOOOOOPS

Listen to my new story Ryan,

Today, I woke up late, checked my eMails as usual, then the Rennlist forum, so I read about your sad story, detailing your car and then what happened. However, I was a little board and to tell you the truth I got motivated when I read how good you take care of your car, so I decided to take my babe and wash her by hand for the first time since its Sunday and I had no other plans.

I always go to auto wash or some wash by hand places, this time I decided to wash her by myself. So I went to AutoZone store, got all what I needed, went to a wash bay and spent about 2 hours cleaning the beast, in and out.

On the way home, I was driving straight and DID NOT STOP at all. Once I arrived home I found a massive poop on the trunk (The back glass, Cayenne S logo and metal bumper) was all creamed, and a bigger one on the roof. . I guess the birds in Boston are suffering from a bad diarrhea and I'm the one who is paying the price.

No more comments, goodnight all

Whenever I feel the sadness and sorrow from the irresponsible actions of these little animals, I just say to myself "Boy it could've been worse, much worse"

And I look at these pictures to remind myself how lucky I am that I didn't get to suffer the bird's punishment.

Thanks man,
I think going to a body shop is a bit severe.

Have a read in the "Paint Clinic" section: http://www.autopia.ws/
