Before I washed my car today I noticed 2 brown splats which looked like bird droppings. After washing I noticed that in certain light, the marks were still visible but not brown anymore, they looked clear, does this mean its eaten through my clear coat? What can i do to try to remove these marks?? Thank you.

while bird presents are harsh for your finish, it hopefully appears to be just a clear coat staining

try a claybar first if theyre still there, try a mild polish, or a cleaner wax.

If still there, try a heavier compound using a buffer.

I highly recommend everyone get bird droppings off their paint quickly. For this, I keep some QD in my trunk. Bird dropping can quickly etch the clearcoat and you'll see it forever.

For the OP... Seer has a good suggestion regarding the Claybar and a mild polish. This should do the trick. It doesn't sound like it etched your CC.

yeah i second this, i dont know how the hell a bird took a crap inside my grill but it splatter all in the grill and its hard for me to clean it good things its not noticable from the outside only if you look up close but it still sucks cause i try use a pressure washer and it still not come off so idk

For bird bombs and etching the typical removal process is...

1. Quick Detailer
2. Claybar
3. Polish

Never let birds get near my car, always use covered parking for long term for short term, I enable the system...good out to 5nm.

not to hijack this thread, but anyone successfully take it off of their clearbra? I have one and nothing seems to work
