Try some clay Ferris. The birdie chit may have eaten through your clear coat.

LOL maybe we should start my car was vandalized by bird dung thread. I had the same problem, but I tried Zaino just use it sparingly and check for progress frenquently. I like the fact that the second you stop rubbing it in, you can wipe it off and buff it out. It works on swirls marks too.

I'm a bird crap snob; either it's fresh or I won't have anything to do with it

im generally an anti zaino person, because i feel i get just as good results with other products (i use a combo of crystal guard with liquid glass on top) but im getting this abrasion stuff and gonna see if it works.

It looks like a sugar scrub for your car -- dissolving abrasives! Zaino is stealing ideas from teh women's beauty aisle!!!
