        I have been reading various theories on the internet about birds and shiny things causing them to empty their bowels.

          It. looks like there's going to be a permanent splatter mark that you can see when sunlight reflects off it

              Is it just a carplan spray bottle that you use, Ben? Also, has anyone tried Auto Glym Bird Dropping wipes?

                  I had some on my bonnet for less than 24hrs which will need machine polishing out

                    I think mine will need this as well. It was probably there overnight.

                      Always thought its the digestive acids that make their way through the birds guts (Onto cars)
                      Keep a bottle of water and a small sponge in the boot always
                      AND in the DS3 a bottle of polish too (Sad eh)
                      If anyone takes the P when I do it (straight away when seen) just tell them protecting my investment (Quite true)

                          I clean it off as soon as I discover it. Hot water soaked sponge or cloth/tea towel and let it soak on the poo for a few minutes and it should wipe off. If it doesn't rinse the cloth out and cover the stain again and leave it and it should wipe off. A good waxed or polished car helps.
