bird sh*te arrrrrrgh!!!
« on: 08 April 2009, 19:52 »
After giving the car a good clean yesterday and having it all sparkling it got pooped on today at work.

Is there a product I can carry in the car for quick and easy removal when this happens?

Something like this would be fine :-

Spray on and wipe off after a short time, preferably with a micro fibre cloth  :smiley:

I have a pack of those Armorall bird $hite wipes in the car.

Had to buy them a few months back - car got shat on three days in a row.

Might invest in some of those wipes on my next cleaning shop too.

the problem with using QD is that you get sh!te all over your microfibre.. I would use the bird sh!te wipes and then the QD

Baking soda in warm water works well.

just keep some car wash in a spray bottle... quick splash, sorted.

It wont etch the paint overnight, just dont leave it on.
