I've been using a QD (Griot's garage Speed Shine) with a microfiber towel with perfect results. But I always wipe them off frequently, like every other day or so. My car is PW + Ventureshield clear bra.

If you look at the stain at a shallow angle with good light you might be able to tell.

I've heard this can be removed with a blow dryer or heat gun (be careful not to cook it!) or in some cases denatured ethanol (though this seems like a bad idea). Google these approaches first. I haven't tried them myself.

Usually Novus plastic polish #2 works for me on all but the very worst poo stains.
There is no roughness or apparent depth. Not sure if I want to dry the heating method just yet. I did order some of the Novus #2 from amazon, will also give that a shot. Thanks for the advice.
