    Hello, I noticed bird poop on my truck yesterday. I carefully wiped it off, but now I noticed a small blemish on the paint. What is the best way to get rid of this blemish other than using a buffer?

    Thanks

    A quick search will set you free. But, you can use vinegar, polish, compound, an AIO, cleaner wax, so many different things. Post up a pic so we can tell how bad it is.

    What gets overlooked too often is that one must be a student before becoming a teacher.

    When using a claybar to remove certain spots, should you also reapply sealant to the entire car? Bird dropping is inevitable... I would hate to seal every week.

    No, only the certain spots you clayed.

    You da man. I will wash & clay this weekend and touch up those spots. Do you redo the entire panel when you do it? I feel like it might look awkward if you seal + wax certain spots.

    I personally would re-seal the entire car. Wash it, clay the spots, re wash, and then reseal, just to be sure everything is covered.
