Default I think a Pterodactyl crapped on my car

I walked into my garage this morning and looked over in horror to see a baseball sized bird crap on my passenger door. It looked to be a quarter inch thick and hard as caked on mud.

Sorry I have no pictures because I was too frantic to get the *crap* off that I completely forgot. Though I don't think you really wanted to see them anyway....

It took me 15 minutes of soaking and careful rubbing to get it off without totally screwing up my paint. Grrrrrrrr.....

Anyway, I am going to clay bar and re-wax the door in hopes that the stain that I see will go away.

Where's my shotgun, I'm going bird hunting......

That is Pcrazy! (sorry, it's been a very long day!) I hope it doesn't leave any permanent damage.

I'm still waiting for car manufacturers to start offering the anti-bird package.

It would be nice to have SAM (surface-to-air missiles) Launchers included.

Bird flies near by, BOOM, no more bird...

I would definitely buy one of those

and yes Pterodactyl is spelled with a silent P at the front, I have no clue why, but your comments are great

Wow, this went down hill fast.

+1 for spelling

On a serious note, let us know how your clear coat cleans up.

Last weekend I put an acrylic (Klasse) on my Z in hopes of minimizing such misadventures. I can not recommend it yet but in theory it sounds good. Best of luck. CC.

I have a new bottle sitting in my garage but haven't had time to apply it.

This is why BB guns were invented. Just eat the birds afterward so its not animal cruelty.
