Bird Poop

Post by Mick »

Well after spending a few hours on Sunday washing and cleaning my Candy White Rocco, the birds have been out in force crapping all over it. Any recommendations for bird poop removal?

Spray with a Quick Detailer and allow it to thoroughly soak in before attempting to wipe away - failing that soak a piece of kitchen towel throughly and place it on each "poop" allowing it to soften or start to melt before wiping away

Do NOT attack it dry or with a thumb nail as you will be very sorry

A quick wax over affected areas will restore protection - good luck

For quick clean I just get a warm damp microfiber cloth plonk it ontop of the poo!
Lets it soak then wipe off no pressure applied!
Works good enough for me!

Yep hot cloth method is best. n a pink, window cleaner with ammonia does the job....

Wish I had a garage!
