Stop Bird Droppings From Killing Your Paint

Right, so here is the deal. Bird droppings (and bats are even worse) are highly acidic. When you combine that with a 35-degree day in March, your car's clear coat expands, lets the acid in, and then shrinks back down as it cools, trapping the damage. I once saw a brand new black Commodore get permanent etching in just three hours at the beach. If you don't get it off fast, you're looking at a professional polish or worse. Don't stress though, it's easy to fix if you're quick about it.

Anyway, don't let it stress you out too much. Just keep a bottle of detailer in the boot and give it a squirt whenever you see a fresh one. It takes thirty seconds and saves you a massive headache down the road. Catch ya later!
