Great idea! The clear coat on the car is nothing more than hard plastic. As we know, every material expands at higher temperatures and shrinks at lower temperatures. I assume that when the birds unloaded their poop, it was warm and the clear coat expanded, and overnight it cooled down and hardened together with the poop. Even ordinary dust and dirt can cause these problems if it gets hot enough and then cools down. All in all a great trick! 👍🏻
These are pro solutions and good ones at that...... however it was a long weekend, a massive amount of Bird crap landed on my car and I did not want to let it sit for days or a week feeling it may do further damage. I had a white car. (Not sure what the outcome would be for a dark paint car?). The chunky part of the poop I got off. Not issue there. What was left was light green stains literally that looking like ink or something. I tried soap and water and a sponge. No change. I tried Turtle wax and some buffing. Did not help at all. I tried Baking soda and water. Did not do anything. I tried Baking soda and vinegar. Nothing. I tried Goo B Gone. No change... no effect. NOTE I chose a small bird poo stain for all these down near the side front fender in the most inconspicuous spot to test all these. In case any of them left some damage or abrasive marks in the paint. I recommend the same. If the situation allows for that. Finally what worked? A mixture paste of Oxy Clean Powder mixed plain hot water. Not so hot that it burns your fingers. I mixed it to a wet version of a paste. I tried applying and rubbing the stains using make Up Remover pads (those white round ones).... I tried a cloth.... it seemed the best way to do it was using my plain old fingers. I would apply a dollop and simply firm but a gentle firm.... rub it with my thumb or fingertips around and over each poo splatter. The more you kept rubbing the fainter and fainter the stain got. It does take some elbow grease and time. It took me around 45 to 55 minutes to do around 35 - 40 splatters ranging from the size of a dime to the size of a pea. But they all came out. Every now and then I would mist the whole area with water. You do not want the paste dry or chunky.... nor too thin.... a little wetter than toothpaste consistency. After I rinsed and rubbed everything with a soft towel and you could see some of the areas where I rubbed with the oxyclean but I am sure a going over with a good car wax with hint of rubbing compound would even out the small few areas I could see a bit of a difference in shine. Would I recommend this for anyone with a prestige car or Hot rod or show car? maybe not? But your everyday homeowner with a run of the mill regular car, SUV or whatever should find this to do the job. Again it is not the work of a pro like this author here but it worked enough for my liking on our white Honda Accord. Hope this helps. Note get bird poop off a car as fast as possible. Every day or hour your leave it lets the high acid content in Birds poop permeate the clear coat and even into the paint if left long enough. Cheers
I get huge amount of useful information from your videos, thanks a lot for sharing. But how did you found that heating the clear coat will remove stains?
I just tried it on my hood, these dam pigeons pooped all over my hood and I didn't wipe it off on time so it left a few etching Mark's after I gave it a wash. Went to harbor freight bought me a cheap heat gun for 10 bucks and what do you know it worked like magic all etchings came off, Thanks for the video and helpful tips my friend ✌
are you some kind of mystical wizard or something, because watching that bird lime vanish in front of my eyes was some kind of wizard sorcery at its finest.
@@Amddetailing Yes but at a certain point the heat gun could damage the paint...they can get up to 750 or 1000 degrees. I have an infrared thermometer that I bake/grill with and can use simultaneous with the heat gun to monitor the paint temperature. So it would be nice to know about what temperature is required to fix bid stains, and at what point you'd be at risk of damaging your paint.
@@Julian-zc9vm in the video he said not to use the high setting so using it at a lowest setting possible shouldn’t damage car paint and do it in circular motion 5 inches away from the paint.
What temperature? You set the speed to low, but no info about temperature. The issue is that many of those tools have temperature settings. Should it be around 100 Celsius? above? lower? Regards!
Alen dali ova moze da se testira na smolu, imao sam jednu kolu koja imao je neki dmg od smolama. Vlasnik nie ostavio cistu i ona je uradila Male rupice kako flekama. Bas se mislim dli ovo bi pomozio
Thought I’d Give this a try , I got seagull 💩 On my roof spoiler it left some marks that no polish was removing , I forgot the rear wing is Plastic It melted a Dent into it now it looks worse than when I started 🫣
very strong acid is found in bird excrement, which corrodes the coating, and the biggest mistake is when it is cleaned with wet wipes, which also contain some chemistry.
