Bird poo !

[angus]

Hi there,

Blimey, yesterday i saw a fresh spraying of bird poo on my Coupes Black paint.
It was very sunny too.
Didnt think much of it and let it stay there whilst I went to bed-y-byes.
Today Ive gone out there to wash the car and the poo has ruined the finish of my paint wherever it touched.
Ive gone over it with some polish (turtle wax clour fast stuff)
Its only just come out after about an hours rubbing !!!
I'm cream crackered.

REMEMBER - Wash poo off as soon as you see it

Are you applying a wax/sealant after polishing?

Polish removes the any protection on the car and exposes the paintwork. YOu need to apply something like Autoglym Extra Gloss Protection. If a bird decides to take a dump on your car the sealant will help protect it and should make it easier to remove.

As above pop on a sealant after polish then if you fancy a nice glossy wet look some wax and will make it easy to remove unless you leave it i always check my car when i get in from work as it can damage your paint.

Glad to here you managed to remove it

You need a pack of these. Work great on the soft top too
