    Ugh, Bird Sh!t!!

    Found a bird bomb on my car today which couldn`t have been there for more than an hour, so I immediately grabbed the QD from the car and removed the dropping. Wouldn`t you know it, now I`ve got a permanent remnant of said bird dropping!! WTF!? I am so ticked off with this crap paint on my car. Just about everything that touches it leaves a permanent mark or requires machine removal. Subaru finally responded to my initial inquiry, so we`ll see what happens. I`m not holding my breath though.

    Sorry, just had to nton nton nton

    wow that sucks. I`ve never heard of that before. Normally it wouldn`t do much damage if it were on there for a few hours. Must have thin paint

    In my car kit I keep in my truck I have ... S+W, S+G, Bird Sh*t Remover, Scratch X , mf apps, tiny container of p21s, and some MFs. When you see a bomb you can wipe it off and then with scratch x you shoudl be able to remove by hand pretty quickly with some work of the old arms. Top that with a wax and your set.

    It all depends on the bird too and what they have been eating. I`ve had sparrow bombs sit on the paint for over a day and came right off, and I`ve had seagull bombs that I removed in under 5 min and left a lasting scar on my wonderful GM paint.....

    Sometimes I think the birds here on Long Island are eating toxic waste.....

    That sucks! I`ve been lucky on the bird droppings. Haven`t had any damage done or anything that didn`t come out. Knock on wood after saying that though! lol
