Sorry to hear that man. But birds love to pick on black cars compare to others. It's almost like GPS guided. My friends liked to park their cars next to mine to avoid bird sh*t when I had a black car...

How true! My fiancee' has a black Hyundai and every morning there's a new patch of bird "relief". My Chicane Yellow 370Z also has a wildlife problem. Bugs....especially Bees are very attracted to it. Maybe we should start a new poll...what kinds of wildlife are attracted to what color Z?....hmmmmm! A good polish and then wax should take care of it. Good luck!

Yellow would probably attract bugs, just because of the color.

So funny, my old HS friend had a Celica which he bought green, and had it painted yellow. And shortly after, he had more insect incidents than anyone we'd ever known. He even asked the painter and they said it might be the scent, but I always thought it was the color.

Now we know.

Have you tried Off!?

I hear you man, bird sh1t is a pain in the a55 and causes permanent damage. I've also had bad experiences.

Nismo89 · 07-01-2012, 12:53 AM

this is precisely why i have a car cover that i cover my car with when im out places. to avoid straight bird Sh*t on it, may take a little longer than just getting out of the car and locking it, but in the end its well worth it.

When I hear wipe, my detailing experience equates wiping to a microfiber cloth and some kind of detailing spray. Not actually just wiping it off.

Exactly

100% this is the bare minimum if you can't wash/don't have time and are out doing errands. Hence keeping the travel size bottle of spray and a couple micro fibre towels in the glove box or rear storage. Last thing you want to do is scratch and damage it more!

I feel for the OP. Last week I parked overnight next to a duck pond. I nearly had a white Z. I washed it and no problems.

Magic Bus · 07-01-2012, 03:08 AM

Z11, I know exactly how u feel as I have a Black GTI. I've never just wiped off bird poop off unless it it just happened and have always washed or used detail spray to get it off, but it still leaves that shadow. And it will still leave that shadow, even if you polished the car the week before. Now someone else may never notice it even if looking for it, but I do.

I thoroughly wash my car and then use a small piece of clay bar on the affected area, then re-polish the affected area. Works good for me.

Z11 · 07-01-2012, 08:04 PM

i used a wet cloth, i made sure the poo got moist, then removed it, but the shadow is there, it looks less visible or maybe its because my car is dusty? i wash my car every week and the very next day theres always dust all over.. but ill try the detailing stuff and the polish.

thanks for the feedback fellaz and the funny ones.

thread is over, no need to add more comments
