Recommendation for bird crap?
It's not so bad right now, but for a while there my car seemed like a magnet for bird shit. I ususally used some QD spray I have in my trunk, but is there an optimal cleaner for this?

moist baby wipes
Mate,
Not sure if the brand "PAMPERS" exists like it does here in the UK. Pampers is a brand of baby wipes here in the UK which I've found to be great at shifting fresh or dry bird cr@p off my car's paint work. Been using for years as live on a tree lined road. Effective + if OK for a new borns backside, it'll be OK on paintwork !!!! Hope this helps...... |

Anything like a specific 'bird crap, tar, grim, whatever' remover will most likely be citrus based, so be careful. It will strip off any protection already there. Seeing you are in the NE, I highly recommend getting ONR. Works great as a QD and in the winter for washing your car. I believe detailed image has a good sale on it right now. |

+1 on ONR. ONR seems to work best when the poop is still somewhat fresh but for the dried variety....Poorboy Bird SH#T remover will soften it enough to be remove safely without marring the paint.
Since you have a history with bird poop, I highly recommend you layer-up on your LSP/protection going into Summer. Bird poop can etch an unprotected surface in less than 15 minutes on a hot day. OR..... Get yourself one of these and don't ever have to worry about birds being around your car EVER again!!!!!! Good Luck. ![]()

Poor boys world bird sh#t remover or honestly any quick detailer. If I were you, I would just get a really good microfiber towel and some bird sh#t remover and throw it in your car. Bird sh#t remover is just a hyper-concentrated quick detailer. Just let it soak for a minute or two and it should wipe right off.
