Tips for how to remove bird shit stains
You can simply end up with bird droppings on your car. And you don't have an opportunity to remove it immediately. Sure it happens, but remember the following tips:
- Don't park your car out in the sun. Sunlight and heat ensure that the acids of the bird poop draw into the car's paintwork even quicker. Make sure you park your car in a covered or underground car park or in the shade.
- Do not rub. By rubbing dried and hard bird droppings, chances are you will scratch the paintwork.
- If you made sure that your car is waxed properly, the chances bird poop acids drawing into the paintwork are a lot smaller.
- Never use scouring products or other products that may scratch. Those products will cause more damage to your paintwork than the bird poop.
- If you can stop birds from pooping on the car that is best of all. Try to avoid parking your car in the 'danger zone’, so do not park under trees. If you have no choice and your car is parked in the same place for a long time? Consider buying a protective cover.
